Answer:

( 19/3 , 2 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given in the question,

point D(7,1)

x1 = 7

y1 = 1

point F(5,4)

x2 = 5

y2 = 4

Location of point E which is 1/3 of the way from D to F

which means ratio of point E from D to F is 1 : 2

a : b

1 : 2

xk = [tex]x1 + \frac{a}{a+b}(x2-x1)[/tex]

yk = [tex]y1 + \frac{a}{a+b}(y2-y1)[/tex]

Plug values in the equation

xk = 7 + (1)/(1+2) (5-7)

xk = 19/3

yk = 1 + (1)/(1+2)(4-1)

yk = 2
