a) Theo bài ra ta có: \(\overrightarrow{AM}=\dfrac{1}{2}.\overrightarrow{AB}\)
\(\overrightarrow{AN}=3.\overrightarrow{NC}\) => \(\overrightarrow{AN}=3.\left(\overrightarrow{AC}-\overrightarrow{AN}\right)\) => \(4.\overrightarrow{AN}=3.\overrightarrow{AC}\)
=> \(\overrightarrow{AN}=\dfrac{3}{4}.\overrightarrow{AC}\)
=> \(\overrightarrow{MN}=\overrightarrow{AN}-\overrightarrow{AM}=\dfrac{3}{4}.\overrightarrow{AC}-\dfrac{1}{2}.\overrightarrow{AB}\)
b) Xét tam giác ABC, theo định lý Talet có: \(\dfrac{CN}{CA}=\dfrac{CP}{CB}=\dfrac{1}{3}\)
=> NP// AB => \(\dfrac{NP}{AB}=\dfrac{CN}{CA}=\dfrac{1}{4}\) => \(\overrightarrow{NP}=\dfrac{1}{4}.\overrightarrow{AB}\)
=> \(\overrightarrow{MP}=\overrightarrow{MN}+\overrightarrow{NP}=\dfrac{3}{4}.\overrightarrow{AC}-\dfrac{1}{2}.\overrightarrow{AB}+\dfrac{1}{4}.\overrightarrow{AB}=\dfrac{-1}{2}.\overrightarrow{AB}+\dfrac{3}{4}.\overrightarrow{AC}\)
