If \(m: n\) is the ratio in which the point \(\left(\frac{8}{5},-\frac{1}{5}, \frac{8}{5}\right)\) divides the line segment joining the points \((2, \mathrm{p}, 2)\) and \((\mathrm{p},-2, \mathrm{p})\) where p is an integer then \(\frac{3 m+n}{3 n}=\)

  1. A p
  2. B 2 p
  3. C 3 p
  4. D 4 p
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) p

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\frac{8}{5} = \frac{m(p) + n(2)}{m+n} \implies 8m+8n = 5mp+10n \implies m(8-5p) = 2n \implies \frac{m}{n} = \frac{2}{8-5p}\)…
