Step-by-step explanation:
Using the section formula, if a point (x,y) divides the line joining the points (x₁,y₁) and (x₂,y₂) internally in the ratio m:n, then (x,y)=(mx₂+mx₁/m+n, nx₂+nx₁/ m+n₎
substituting (ˣ₁,y₁)= (7,-6) and (x₂.y₂) =(3,4) and m=1 and n=2 in the section formula we get,
the point (1(3)+ 2(7)/1+2, 1(4)+2(-6)/1+2)=(17/3, -8/3)
Since, x− cordinate is positive and y− cordinate is negative, the point lies in the IV quadrant.
