The coordinates of point B that divides the line in the ratio 1:3 is: ( C )(3.25, 2.75)

<h3>What is a line segment?</h3>

A line segment is formed by joining two points by a straight line.

Analysis:

The coordinates of point B(x,y) are gotten by the formula

x = \frac{px2 + qx1}{p+q}

y = \frac{py2 + qy1}{p + q}

where, x1 and y1 are coordinates of A and x2 and y2 are coordinates of B

are the values of the ratio p:q.

x1 = 4, x2 = 1 y1 = 5,  y2 = 2, p = 1, q = 3

x = \frac{(1 x 1) + (3 x 4)}{1 + 3} = 3.25

y = \frac{(1 x 5) + ( 3 x 2)}{1+3} = 2.75

coordinates of B are ( 3.25, 2.75)

In conclusion, the coordinates of point B are (3.25, 2.75)

The following invoice contains the notation "2/10, n/30." Determine the price of the order. An invoice dated December 27 lists a
irinina [24]

Answer:

The problem statement tells you the order price is $885.00.

The balance to be paid on 5 Jan is 2% less than that, $867.30.

Step-by-step explanation:

The notation "2/10, n/30" means a discount of 2% is applied if the invoice is paid within 10 days, but the net amount is due within 30 days in any event. 10 days after 27 Dec is 6 Jan, so a payment on the 5th of January is subject to the 2% discount.

After 2% is subtracted from 100% of the invoice amount, 98% percent remains. The payment need only be ...

... 0.98 × $885.00 = $867.30

<em>_____</em>

<em>Comment on problem wording</em>

Your problem statement says, "Determine the price of the order." It also says, "... an order priced at $885.00." The determination asked for is found in the problem statement: $885.00. If that is the required answer, it would place this problem in the "trick question" category, as the notation and payment date information are clearly unneeded.

We suspect the problem really wants you to determine the amount to be paid for the order when payment is made on January 5. Unfortunately, that is not what is asked for.

In one day, there are two high tides and two low tides in equally spaced intervals. The high tide is observed to be 6 feet above
creativ13 [48]
Answer:  The "independent variable" is the "time" (in hours) that is plotted on the "x-axis".  Note the "time" (in hours) can be "manipulated" in the sense that is it "chosen" by the humans who are measuring the data (e.g. when to start, how many hours, and at what intervals.

The "dependent variable" is the measurement (in feet) above or below the sea level, and this is plotted on the "y-axis".  These values cannot be "manipulated" in the sense that one cannot "choose" what value or measurement the tide level would be at any particular time.

Hope these answers—and explanations—are of help to you.
Best wishes!
