On a number line, the directed line segment from q to s has endpoints q at –14 and s at 2. point r partitions the directed line

segment from q to s in a 3:5 ratio. which expression correctly uses the formula (startfraction m over m n endfraction) (x 2 minus x 1) x 1 to find the location of point r?

The coordinates of point r(-8,0).

<h3>What is midpoint formula in coordinate geometry?</h3>

The coordinates of the point r(x,y) which divides the line segment joining the points p(x_{1},y_{1}) and q(x_{2},y_{2}) internally in the ratio :m_{1}m_{2} are

\left(\frac{m_{1}x_{2}+ m_{2}x_{1} }{m_{1}+m_{2}  } ,\frac{m_{1}y_{2}+ m_{2}y_{1} }{m_{1}+m_{2}  }\Rifgt)

Given that,

Two end points on the line q(-14,0) and s(2,0). point r(x,y) is the partition of the line segment from q to s in a ratio 3:5

m_{1} = 3 and m_{2} = 5

By using the midpoint formula

\left(\frac{m_{1}x_{2}+ m_{2}x_{1} }{m_{1}+m_{2}  } ,\frac{m_{1}y_{2}+ m_{2}y_{1} }{m_{1}+m_{2}  }\Rifgt)

\left(\frac{3(2)+ 5(-14) }{3+5  } ,\frac{3(0)+ 5(0) }{3+5  }\Rifgt)

\left(\frac{-64}{8  } ,\frac{0 }{8  }\Rifgt)

\left(-8 ,0\Rifgt)

Hence, The coordinates of point r(-8,0).

Answer:

a. 36.25 ft

b. 45 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

GIVE YOUR ANSWER IN FEET !!! as the problem statement says.

not in inches. when you use the scale factor with inches, you get inches as result. then you need to convert them to feet.

how many inches in 1 ft ?

12 !

so, you need to divide your results by 12 to get the feet.
