00:02 Okay, so the two points are given on the number line.
00:05 First is m which is at 2 .0 and the second is j which is at 18 .0.
00:11 Now let's assume a point x which is at a .0.
00:17 So, mx will be equal to a minus 2 and xj will be equal to 18 minus a.
00:27 Now we are already given the ratio of mx to xj...
