On a number line, point P has coordinate 1,5 and point Q has coordinate 4,5. Point X is the point between P and Q whose distance from P is 2/3 the distance from P to Q. What is the coordinate of point X?
My answer is 3,5, however, the correct answer is 2,5 ; 7,2. I don’t understand.
3.5 is correct, assuming I read correctly. If X is at 3.5, then the distance from X to P is 2 and the distance from P to Q is 3.
I also think 3,5 is correct but the answer key from ■■■■■■■■■■■■ don’t think so
Yep, I got 3.5 as well. Btw the commas make kind of difficult to answer.
Answer key could be flawed.
