The distance between the start and end points is 28.3 miles.

<h3>How to find the distance?</h3>

Remember that the distance between two points (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) is:

d = \sqrt{(x_1 - x_2)^2 + (y_2 -y_1)^2}

Here the initial point is (0mi, 0mi).

If we define the north as positive y-axis and east as the positive x-axis, after that Thomas travels 24 miles north and 15 miles west his new position is:

(-15mi, 24mi).

The distance is then:

d = \sqrt{(-15mi - 0mi)^2 + (24mi - 0mi)^2} = 28.3mi

Find the point, M, that divides segment AB into a ratio of 3.1 if A is at (-4,-2) and B is at (4. -10).
Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

The coordinates of M are (2,-8)

Step-by-step explanation:

The coordinates of the point that divides the line segment joining

A(x_1,y_1) to B(x_2,y_2) in the ratio m:n is given by:

(\frac{mx_2+nx_1}{m+n},\frac{my_2+ny_1}{m+n})

If A is at (-4,-2) and B is at (4. -10) and the ratio is 3:1.

Then

(\frac{3(4)+1(-4)}{3+1},\frac{3(-10)+1(-2)}{3+1})

(\frac{8}{4},\frac{-32}{4})

The coordinates of M are (2,-8)
