If p(9a-2,-b) divides A(3a+1,-3) and B(8a,5) in 3:1 then the respective values of a and b |
|
Answer» P(9a-2,b) = (x,y)A(3a+1.-3) = (x1,y1)B(8a,5) = (x2,y2)Ratio (m1,m2) = 3,1x = m1*x2 + m2*x1 --------------------- m1 + m29a-2 =3*8a +1* 3a+1 ----------------- 3 + 19a-2 = 24a + 3a + 1 ---------------- 436a - 8 = 27a + 136a - 27a= 1 + 89a = 9a = 9 ----- 9a = 1Now,y = m1*y2 + m2*y1 --------------------- m1 + m2-b = 3*5 + 1 * -3 ---------------- 4-b = 15 - 3 -------- 4-b = 12/4-b = 3b = -3Therefore a = 1, b = -3\xa0 9a= (24a+3a+1)/436a=27a+19a=1a=1/9-b= 15-3-b=12b=-12 |
