AI Generated Solution

To find the coordinates of the point that divides the line segment joining the points (6, 3) and (-4, 5) in the ratio 3:2, we will use the section formula. We will solve this problem in two parts: (i) for internal division and (ii) for external division. ### (i) Internal Division 1. **Identify the Points and the Ratio:** - Let point A = (6, 3) and point B = (-4, 5). - The ratio in which point C divides AB is 3:2. ...
