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. What is the location of the fountain? Round to the nearest tenth, if necessary.

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.

14. Add the line times the outside number
X(X+4)= (2√3)^2
X^2+4X= 4√9
X^2+4X= 4times 3
X^2+4X=12
X^2+4X-12=0
(X+6)(X-2)=0
X=-6 X=2
Answe can't be negative so it's X=2

What is the measure of angle x?<br> Enter your answer in the box.<br> x =<br> UwU PLZ help
MissTica
I think it might be 43° because since the line is going through the middle, it would be 180-47-90=43 (the 90 came from the right angle)

hope this helps! :)
