The y-coordinate of the point that divides the directed line segment from J to K into a ratio of 5:1 is 0.

<h3>How to carry out division of line segments?</h3>

From the attached line segment graph, we see the coordinates as;

J (1, -10) and K (7, 2)

Let us assume that, point L divides the directed line segment from J to K into a ratio of 5:1.

From the properties of coordinate geometry we know that, the coordinates of point that divides the line joining (x₁, y₁), (x₂, y₂) in m:n, are;

[(mx₂ + nx₁)/(m + n)], [(my₂ + ny₁)/(m + n)]

Plugging in the relevant values gives;

[(5 * 7 + 1 * 1)/(5 + 1)], [(5 * 2 + 1 * -10)/(5 + 1)]

⇒ (6, 0)

Therefore, the y-coordinate of the point that divides the directed line segment from J to K into a ratio of 5:1 is 0.

Use the quadratic formula to solve x² + 9x + 10 = 0.<br><br> What are the solutions to the equation?
jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer:

-1.30\ and\ -7.70 (2 decimal places)

Step-by-step explanation:

Quadratic Formula: x=\frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}

-----------------------------------------------

x^2+9x+10=0

Plug in values:

x=\frac{-9\pm \sqrt{9^2-4\cdot \:1\cdot \:10}}{2\cdot \:1}

First value of x:

x=\frac{-9+\sqrt{41}}{2}=-1.30 (2 decimal places)

Second value of x:

x=\frac{-9-\sqrt{41}}{2}=-7.70 (2 decimal places)

A square has side length of 8 in. If the area is multiplied by 36, what happens to the side length? HELP PLEASE!!
GaryK [48]

Answer:

The side length is multiplied by 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a square is A = s². Suppose the side is 8 inches. This means the area is A = 8² = 64.

If you were to multiply by 36, then it becomes 64*36 = 2,304. Since squaring gave the area, it's side length would be found using the reverse operation a square root. Take the square root of 2,304.

√2304 = 48

The side length changed from 8 to 48 which is a scale factor of 6. This means 8 * 6 = 48.
