The point P that partitions the segment into the ratio 1:5 is 3.5
How to find the location of P?
The given parameters are
C = -6
D = 15
P = 1 : 5
The location of point P is calculated as
P = 1/(1 + 5) * (D - C)
This gives
P = 1/6 * (15 + 6)
Evaluate
P = 3.5
Hence, the point P that partitions the segment into the ratio 1:5 is 3.5
