Answer:
[tex](-1, 3)[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
See attachment for ABCD
Options:
[tex](-1, 3)\ \ \ (0,3)\ \ \ (1,5)\ \ \ (2,5)[/tex]
From the attachment:
[tex]A = (-6,1)[/tex]
[tex]B = (4,5)[/tex]
Required
Coordinates on AB
First, calculate the slope of AB
[tex]m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}[/tex]
[tex]m = \frac{5-1}{4--6}[/tex]
[tex]m = \frac{4}{10}[/tex]
[tex]m = 0.4[/tex]
Next,, calculate the equation as:
[tex]y = m(x - x_1) + y_1[/tex]
[tex]y = 0.4(x - -6) + 1[/tex]
[tex]y = 0.4(x +6) + 1[/tex]
[tex]y = 0.4x +2.4 + 1[/tex]
[tex]y = 0.4x +3.4[/tex]
Taking the options one at a time: (-1, 3)
[tex]x = -1\ \ y =3[/tex]
Test these values in the equation
[tex]y = 0.4 * -1 + 3.4[/tex]
[tex]y = -0.4 + 3.4[/tex]
[tex]y =3[/tex]
Hence, this point lie on AB
