The point P divides the line segment joining the points (5, 0) and (0, 4) in the ratio 2 : 3 internally. The coordinates of P are:
A. 
B. 
C. 
D. 
Answer :
Coordinates of point P (x,y) dividing the line segment joining the points (5, 0) and (0, 4) in the ratio 2 : 3 internally are:
x =
∴ x = 3
And y =
P is the required point.
∴ The correct option is A.
