Find the coordinates of point X that lies along the directed line segment from Y(-8, 8) to T(-15, -13) and partitions the segment in the ratio of 5:2. A. (-11.5, -2.5)
B. (-13, -7)
C. (-5, -15)
D. (-23, -5)

C because i said so and geah cool

C
You have to dot the coordinates as told in the question

Best answer that i found on yahoo ok   set :   x= length of 2nd piece in cm  x- 3= length of 1st piece in cm  x-4= length of 3rd piece in cm  then since you know they all came from the 20 cm ribbon you add them together and set them equal to 20x+ x-3 +x-4 = 20  3x - 7= 20  3x= 27  x= 9  the shortest piece is the third piece which is x- 4  x-4  9-4 = 5  the length of the smallest piece is 5 cm.  the other lengths are  9 cm  6 cm
