On a coordinate plane, a line is drawn from point a to point b. point a is at (7, negative 2) and point b is at (negative 8, neg

ative 9). what are the x- and y-coordinates of point c, which partitions the directed line segment from a to b into the ratio 5:8? round to the nearest tenth, if necessary. x = (startfraction m over m n endfraction) (x 2 minus x 1) x 1 y = (startfraction m over m n endfraction) (y 2 minus y 1) y 1 (–2.2, –6.3) (–2.4, –6.4) (2.7, –0.7) (1.2, –4.7)

The coordinate of the partition c on the line segment is (1.2, -4.7)

<h3>How to determine the coordinates of the partition?</h3>

The coordinates are given as:

A = (7,-2)

B = (-8,-9)

m:n = 5:8

The coordinate of the partition is calculated using:

(x,y) = \frac{1}{m + n} * (mx_2 + nx_1, my_2 + ny_1)

So, we have:

(x,y) = \frac{1}{5 + 8} * (5 * -8 + 8 * 7, 5 * -9 + 8 * -2)

Evaluate the sum and products

(x,y) = \frac{1}{13} * (16, -61)

Evaluate the product

(x,y) = (1.2, -4.7)

Hence, the coordinate of the partition on the line segment is (1.2, -4.7)

Luna is making a rope ladder. Each step of the ladder is 2 1/3 feet wide and uses an additional 1/2 foot on each end of the step
koban [17]

By taking the quotient between the total length and the length needed for each step, we conclude that Luna can make 9 steps.

<h3>How many steps can she make from the rope?</h3>

To find this, we need to take the quotient between the total length of the rope and the length needed for each step.

She has a total length of 30ft.

For each step she needs (2 + 1/3) ft plus (1/2) ft for each knot, and there are two knots, then each step needs: (2 + 1/3)ft + 2*(1/2)ft = (3 + 1/3) ft.

Then the number of steps that can be made is:

N = (30 ft)/(3 + 1/3) ft. = 9

She can make 9 steps or the lader.

Suppose a manager plans to sample 10 items from a population of 100 items and would like to determine the probability of observi
aev [14]

Answer:

a) We conclude that the menager use the hypergeometric distribution.

b) We conclude that the menager use the binomial distribution.

Step-by-step explanation:

a) We know that in probability theory, the hypergeometric distribution is a discrete probability distribution that describes the probability of k successes in n draws, without replacement.

We conclude that the menager use the hypergeometric distribution.

b) We know that the binomial distribution describes the probability of k successes in n draws with replacement.

We conclude that the menager use the binomial distribution.

The graph of F(x), shown below, resembles the graph of G(x) x2, but it has
Bingel [31]

Correct answer is: F(x)=-x^2-3

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a function:

The graph of is also shown in the given question figure.

It is a parabola with vertex at (0,0).

Sign of is positive, that is why the parabola opens up.

General equation of parabola is given as:

Here, in G(x), a = 1

Vertex (h,k) is (0,0).

As seen from the question figure,

The graph of F(x) opens down that is why it will have:

Sign of as negative. i.e.

And vertex is at (0,-3)

Putting the values of a and vertex coordinates,

Hence, the equation of parabola will become:
