The line segment joining A 
the points B (a, 5) is divided in the ratio 1 : 3 at P, the point where the line segment AB intersects y-axis. Calculate
(i) the value of a
(ii) the co-ordinates of P. (1994)
Solution:
The point P (-4, 1) divides the line segment joining the points A (2, -2) and B in the ratio of 3: 5. Find the point B.
