To find the z-coordinate of the point \( P \) that lies on the line segment joining the points \( Q(2, 1) \) and \( R(5, 1, -2) \) with the x-coordinate of \( P \) being 4, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Problem We are given two points \( Q(2, 1) \) and \( R(5, 1, -2) \). Point \( P \) lies on the line segment joining \( Q \) and \( R \) and has an x-coordinate of 4. We need to find the z-coordinate of point \( P \). ### Step 2: Use the Section Formula Let \( P \) divide the line segment \( QR \) in the ratio \( \lambda : 1 \). The coordinates of point \( P \) can be expressed using the section formula as follows: ...
