Read each question carefully and follow the instructions to partition the line segments.

1. Consider a line segment on a number line from 0 to 10. Find the point that partitions the segment into a 1:1 ratio. What is the coordinate of this point?

2. A segment on a number line starts at -5 and ends at 15. If it is partitioned into a 3:2 ratio, the point is at .

3. A segment on the coordinate plane connects point A(1, 2) and B(7, 8). Which of the following points partitions the segment in a 1:2 ratio?

(3, 4)

(5, 6)

(4, 5)

(2, 3)

4. Plot the points C(-4, 0) and D(6, 0) on the coordinate plane. Then, find the point that partitions the segment CD in a 2:3 ratio and label it P.

5. The midpoint of a segment partitions the segment into a 1:1 ratio.
