The value of (x,y) is  (1.2 , -4.7) , Option D is the right answer.

The complete question is

On a coordinate plane, a line is drawn from point a to point b. point a is at (7, negative 2) and point b is at (negative 8, negative 9). what are the x- and y-coordinates of point c, which partitions the directed line segment from a to b into the ratio 5:8? round to the nearest tenth, if necessary. x = (startfraction m over m n endfraction) (x 2 minus x 1) x 1 y = (startfraction m over m n endfraction) (y 2 minus y 1) y 1 (–2.2, –6.3) (–2.4, –6.4) (2.7, –0.7) (1.2, –4.7)

<h3>What are Coordinates ?</h3>

Coordinates are the location of a point in an (x,y) plot.

The given data is

Coordinates of

A = (7,-2)

B = (-8,-9)

m:n = 5:8

The coordinates of partition has to be determined

The formula used is

\rm (x,y) = \dfrac{1}{m+n} *(nx_1 + mx_2 , ny_1+ny_2)\\\\\\\rm (x,y) = \dfrac{1}{5+8} *(5*-8 + 8*7 , 5*-9+8*-2)

(x,y ) = (1.2 , -4.7)

Therefore Option D is the correct answer.

Answer:

Length of the room is   180 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a rectangular room with dimensions:

width  =  70  ft       and  length    "x" (unknown)

Perimeter of a rectangle   is   2*w  +  2*x    and according to problem statement 500 ft of lights will fit exactly in room perimeter then:

2*70  +  2*x   =  500

140  + 2*x  =  500

2*x  =  500 - 140

2*x  = 360

x  = 360/2

x  =  180  ft

What pattern do you noticed for each column​
Lorico [155]

Answer:

If you look at the "Standard Form" column, you can take any number from an upper row and divide it by 4 to get the number in the row below it.

For example: You can take 256 and divide it by 4, and that will give you 64. Like wise, if you take 64 and divide it by 4 you will get 16.

This tells us that every time you add 4 to the equation, your answer will keep increasing 4 times.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hope that makes sense :)

If you still don't get it, please let me know.
