The point Q on a line segment with end points(2,1) and (4,2) is Q(12/5, -2/5)

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

A line segment is a straight line that passes through two given points.

The end points of the line determine how long or short a given line segment would be.

Analysis:

point Q(x, y )

x = \frac{MX1 + NX2}{M+N}

y = \frac{MY1 + MY2}{M+N}

where M :N = 4:1

x1 = 2, x2 = 4, y1 = -1, y2 = 2

x = \frac{4(2) +1(4)}{4+1} = 12/5

y = \frac{4(-1) + 1(2)}{4+1} = -2/5

In conclusion, the point Q is (12/5, -2/5).

What are the solutions?<br>8x^2-12x-23=-5​
erastova [34]

Answer:

x = 3/4 + (3 sqrt(5))/4 or x = 3/4 - (3 sqrt(5))/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x over the real numbers:

8 x^2 - 12 x - 23 = -5

Divide both sides by 8:

x^2 - (3 x)/2 - 23/8 = -5/8

Add 23/8 to both sides:

x^2 - (3 x)/2 = 9/4

Add 9/16 to both sides:

x^2 - (3 x)/2 + 9/16 = 45/16

Write the left hand side as a square:

(x - 3/4)^2 = 45/16

Take the square root of both sides:

x - 3/4 = (3 sqrt(5))/4 or x - 3/4 = -(3 sqrt(5))/4

Add 3/4 to both sides:

x = 3/4 + (3 sqrt(5))/4 or x - 3/4 = -(3 sqrt(5))/4

Add 3/4 to both sides:

Answer:  x = 3/4 + (3 sqrt(5))/4 or x = 3/4 - (3 sqrt(5))/4

HELP ME WITH 16 &amp; 17
damaskus [11]

__Data__

The equilateral's lengths are all the same

Also if AB = AD = BD = CD that would mean all those sides have the exact same length

Answers and Explanations

15A. BCD has 2 acute angles and one obtuse angle, so this is an Obtuse Triangle

15B. If beforementioned = 5 cm

Then the perimeter is 5cm x 3 = 15cm

15C. ABC is a Right Triangle  

16. abcdef. Measure the angles using a protractor

17. The shortest side of ABC is AB which is 5cm, the longest is AC which is 10cm

Shortest side: Longest side

5cm:10cm

1:2 is the ratio

Suppose systolic blood pressure of 17 year female is approximately distributed with a mean of 118mmHg and a standard deviation o
Artemon [7]

Answer:

a) 0.383

b) 0.375

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Calculate each z-score.

z = (x − μ) / σ

z₁ = (112 − 118) / 12 = -0.5

z₂ = (124 − 118) / 12 = 0.5

Use a calculator or z-score table to find the probability.

P(-0.5 < Z < 0.5) = 0.6915 − 0.3085 = 0.383

b) 0.383 × 16 ≈ 6.  So the expected proportion would be 6/16 = 0.375.
