NEED ANSWER ASAP What is the location of point G, which partitions the directed line segment from F to D into an 8:5 ratio?

Answer:
G is on 4
Step-by-step explanation:
keeping an 8 : 5 ratio, G should be on 4
Answer:
(A) 1
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that the formula is x = (m/m+n) (x2-x1) + x1.
But the trick to the question which is why everyone is getting it wrong is because it asks for F to D not D to F.
The reason everyone else was getting 4 was because they were using this.
They solved the equation x = (8/8+5) (9-[-4]) -4 where it was D to F. This equation does turn out to be 4 but it is incorrect.
However, the correct equation (because it is supposed to be F to D) is
x = (8/8+5) (-4 -9) +9 which is in fact equal to 1.
I also just took the quiz and got 100%.
