Answer:

(8.2,2)

Step-by-step explanation:

1.

4:1 ratio means XY divided into 5 equal sections. (5 = 4+1)

4:1 ratio means (4/(4+1))

4:1 ratio means (4/5)

2.

4:1 ratio means M is 4/5 of the way from the initial point X(1, −2)

3.

get the x and y distances between (1, −2) and  (10, 3)

x2-x1=9

y2-y1=5

4.

since  initial point is (1, −2)

you add 1 to the new x value and

you add -2 to the new y value

ANSWERS:

x-coordinate of M = 1 + (4/5)(9) = 1 + 7.2 = 8.2

y-coordinate of M = -2 + (4/5)(5) = -2 + 4 = 2

As we move along XY from X to Y,

x increases by 9 and

y increases by 5

M is the point on XY that is 4/5 of the way from X to Y.

M is 4/5 of the distance from (1,-2) to (10,3).

To find M x and y coordinates 4/5 of distance between (x1,y1) and (x2,y2):

To find M x and y coordinates 4/5 of distance between (1,-2) and (10,3):

x-coordinate of M = 1 + (4/5)(9) = 1 + 7.2 = 8.2

y-coordinate of M = -2 + (4/5)(5) = -2 + 4 = 2

How do you find the lowest common factor of 6 and 14
Gwar [14]
2 divides both numbers, so divide both numbers by 2 to get 3 and 7. These are relatively prime, so 2 is the gcd. The lcm is 6*14/2=42.

2. The ratio of
denpristay [2]

Answer:

<h2>3500</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the  ratio of  the profit, cost of  materials and labour  in the production of

an article to be 5:7:13 respectively, total ratio = 5+7+13 = 25

If the cost of labour is x, the cost of material will be 840+x (since the  cost of materials is Le  840 more than that of  labour)  .

Let the total cost of producing the article be y.

Cost of labour = 13/25 * y = x

Cost of labour  = 13y/25 = x.................... 1

Cost of material = 7/25*y = 840+x

Cost of material = 7y/25 = 840+x ..................... 2

From 1, 13y = 25x

x = 13y/25 ................... 3

Substituting equation 3 into 2:

7y/25 = 840+x

7y/25 = 840+13y/25

collect the like terms:

7y/25 - 13y/25 = 840

-6y/25 = 840

-6y = 25*840

y = 25*840/6

y = 3,500

<em>Hence the total cost of producing the article is 3500</em>
