The x- and y- coordinates of point E, which partitions the directed line segment from J to K into a ratio of 1:4 is (17, 11)

<h3>Midpoint of coordinate points</h3>

The midpoint of a line is the point that bisects or divides the line into two equal parts

If the line JK is partitioned into the ratio 1:4 with the following coordinates

J(-15, -5) and K(25, 15)

Using the expression below;

M(x, y) =[mx1+nx2/m+n, my1+ny2/m+n]

Substitute the ratio and the coordinates

M(x, y) =[1(-15)+4(25)/4+1, 1(-5)+4(15)/1+4]

M(x, y) = [(85)/5, 55/5]

M(x, y) = (17, 11)

Hence the x- and y- coordinates of point E, which partitions the directed line segment from J to K into a ratio of 1:4 is ((17, 11)

Goshia [24]
Let's find the rates at which Melinda and Marcus are saving money and compare them. 
Based on the table, we can see that Melinda originally had $75. Then she got $135 in 5 weeks.  So the rate of saving money is (135–75)/5 = $12 per week.
This rate is unchanged for the next weeks. As we can see, she got $195 in the next 5 weeks. So she saved $60 more those 5 weeks, or the rate is $60/5 = $12 per week again. 

So Melinda saved $12 per week.
As for Marcus, the equation tells us that the rate of saving money is $14 which is the coefficient in front of x.

Hence, t<span>he rate at which Melinda is adding to her savings each week is 2$
less than the rate at which Marcus is adding to his savings each week.</span>

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of figure=Area of rectangle+Area of triangle

Area of figure=(x+2)(x-3)+1/2*(x)*(x+2)

Area of figure=x^2-x-6+0.5*x^2+x

Area of figure=(3/2)x^2-6
