Using proportions, it is found that the coordinates of point P are given as follows: (2,10).

<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>

A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three.

The segment is partitioned by point P according to the ratio of 3:4, hence:

P - A = \frac{3}{7}(B - A)

This proportion is applied for both coordinates, hence, for the x-coordinate:

x - 2 = \frac{3}{7}(2 - 2)

x - 2 = 0

x = 2.

For the y-coordinate:

y - 4 = \frac{3}{7}(18 - 4)

y - 4 = 6

y = 10.

Hence the coordinates are (2,10).

Step by set
Roman55 [17]

Answer:

2 2/3 or 8/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Step by step I am guessing? (Is that what each question is for?)

STEP 1

First we have to find 1/3 of 23:

23/3= 1/3 of 23

Then:

5/1 = 15/3

STEP 2

Subtract:

23-15= 8/3

8/3 or 2 2/3

What is the slope of the line shown in the graph?
stira [4]
Y= f(x)= ax+b
when x= -1, y= -1
-1= -a+b   | * ( -1)

when x= -3, y=2
2= -3a+b

-3a+b= 2
a -  b=  1
--------------
2a=3
a=3/2   is the slope
