Q98 / 160 · TS EAMCET 2025 (04 May Shift 2) · Mathematics

Let $\mathrm{A}(\alpha, 4,7)$ and $\mathrm{B}(3, \beta, 8)$ be two points in space. If YZ plane and ZX plane respectively divide the line segment joining the points A and B in the ratio $2: 3$ and 4:5, then the point C which divides $\overline{\mathrm{AB}}$ in the ratio $\alpha: \beta$ externally is

  • A
    $\left(\frac{16}{3}, 10,3\right)$
  • B
    $\left(\frac{-16}{3}, \frac{28}{3}, \frac{19}{3}\right)$
  • C
    $\left(\frac{-16}{3}, \frac{-28}{3}, \frac{-19}{3}\right)$
  • Correct answer
    D
    $\left(\frac{-16}{3}, 10, \frac{19}{3}\right)$

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'D'.
