1. Find the length of the segment AB, use the next formula:
x- difference:
[tex](x_2-x_1)=(6-(-8))=6+8=14[/tex]y-difference:
[tex](y_2-y_1)=(19-(-2))=19+2=21[/tex]2. Find the 2/5 of each difference:
[tex]\begin{gathered} 14*\frac{2}{5}=5.6 \\ \\ \\ 21*\frac{2}{5}=8.4 \end{gathered}[/tex]3. Add the results you get in step 2 to the coordinates of point A:
[tex]\begin{gathered} P(-8+5.6,-2+8.4) \\ P(-2.4,6.4) \end{gathered}[/tex]
