On a coordinate plane, A line is drawn from point Fernando to point Maria. Fountain is labeled in between the 2. Fernando is at

(negative 4, negative 2) and Maria is at (4, 2).
Fernando and Maria are at opposite sides of a park. They plan to meet later at a fountain that is located somewhere between them. Maria will arrive at the fountain first, before Fernando even leaves his starting location. The ratio of Maria's starting location to the fountain to Fernando's starting place is 5:3.

The location of the fountain as described in the task content is; (-1, -0.5).

<h3>What is the location of the Fountain?</h3>

According to the task content, the locations of Fernando and Maria are given as; (-4, -2) and (4,2) respectively and the ratio of division is expected to be; 5: 3.

Hence, the coordinates of the fountain can be evaluated as;

x = (4) - (4-(-4)) × (5/8) = -1.

y = 2 - (2-(-2)) × (5/8) = -0.5

Hence, it follows that the coordinates of the fountain location is; (-1, -0.5) since the fountain is closer to Fernando than Maria.

A discount voucher offering 15% off is used to pay a bill. After using the voucher, the bill is reduced to £36.72.
Elena-2011 [213]

We can use the is/of=p/100 method for this problem. Since it's 15% off, this would mean that the bill is 85% of what it was initially. Plug the values into the is/of=p/100 formula.

36.72/x = 85/100

Solve  for x.

x=36.72/0.85

x=43.2

So, the bill was $43.20 before applying the voucher discount of 15% off.
