Read each question carefully and follow the instructions to partition the line segments. Show all your work.
1. Find the point P that partitions the line segment from A = 2 to B = 17 in the ratio 2:3.
2. A line segment has endpoints at -5 and 15. Find the point that divides the segment into a 1:4 ratio.
3. Find the coordinates of point P that partitions the line segment with endpoints A(1, 2) and B(7, 14) in the ratio 1:2.
4. Given points C(-4, 0) and D(6, 10), find the point Q that divides segment CD in the ratio 3:2.
5. A line segment has endpoints (0, 0) and (10, 10). Which point partitions the segment in a 1:1 ratio?
(1, 1)
(5, 5)
(2, 2)
(10, 10)
6. Which of the following ratios means the segment is divided into two equal parts?
