This exercise involves finding specific points on the line \( L \) with a relationship based on distances from two given points, \( (1, 3) \) and \( (7, 5) \). Let’s go through each part of the problem:

### Understanding the Problem:
We are given:
- Two points: \( (1, 3) \) and \( (7, 5) \), which we can call \( A \) and \( B \) respectively.
- Two unknown points \( p \) and \( q \) on the line \( L \).
  
The problem states:
- The point \( p \) is such that the distance from \( p \) to \( (1, 3) \) is twice the distance from \( p \) to \( (7, 5) \).
- The point \( q \) is such that the distance from \( q \) to \( (1, 3) \) is twice the distance from \( q \) to \( (7, 5) \).

### Part (a): Sketch the Vectors \( V \) and \( W \)
- Vector \( V \) is given as \( V = (7, 5) - p \), which represents the displacement vector from \( p \) to the point \( (7, 5) \).
- Vector \( W \) is given as \( W = q - (7, 5) \), which represents the displacement vector from \( (7, 5) \) to the point \( q \).

### Part (b): Scaling Factors of Vectors
- The vectors \( V \) and \( W \) are multiples of the vector connecting \( (7, 5) \) and \( (1, 3) \), which is \( (7 - 1, 5 - 3) = (6, 2) \). 
- We will need to determine the scaling factors that make the distances match the given conditions. 

### Part (c): Finding Coordinates of \( p \) and \( q \)
To find the coordinates of \( p \) and \( q \), we will use the condition that the distances must satisfy specific proportional relationships. We'll use the distance formula and the fact that \( p \) and \( q \) must lie on the line connecting \( (1, 3) \) and \( (7, 5) \).

Let me calculate the exact coordinates for \( p \) and \( q \) based on these conditions.

#### Calculating Coordinates for \( p \) and \( q \):

We know that the line \( L \) is determined by the points \( (1, 3) \) and \( (7, 5) \), and thus its parametric equation can be written as:
\[
x(t) = 1 + t(6), \quad y(t) = 3 + t(2)
\]
Where \( t \) is a parameter. Using the conditions given for the distances, we can now find \( t \) for both \( p \) and \( q \).

I'll proceed with solving these conditions. Would you like me to continue with detailed steps?

The goal is to determine all points in L that are twice as far from (1, 3) as they are from (7, 5). The points p and q have the property that the distance between p and (1, 3) is twice that between p and (7, 5), and the distance between q and (1, 3) is twice that between q and (7, 5).

Determine the points p and q on line L that are twice as far from (1, 3) as they are from (7, 5), using vector geometry and scaling factors. This problem involves applying the distance formula and understanding vector relations.
