Find the point that is 3/4 of the distance P (-6,-5) to the point Q (2,7)

Using proportions, the coordinates of the point 3/4 of the way from P to Q are: (0,4).

<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>

A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three. Due to this, relations between variables, either direct or inverse proportional, can be built to find the desired measures in the problem.

We want to find the coordinates of point M(x,y) 3/4 of the way from P to Q, hence the rule is given by:

M - P = 3/4(Q - P)

For the x-coordinate, we have that:

x + 6 = 3/4(2 + 6)

x + 6 = 6

x  = 0.

For the y-coordinate, we have that:

y + 5 = 3/4(7 + 5)

y + 5 = 9.

y = 4.

The coordinates are (0,4).

How do I find the displacement? Help frl
liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

  • distance traveled: 30 m
  • displacement: 21.4 m

Step-by-step explanation:

You want the distance traveled and the displacement after walking 17 m south and 13 m east.

<h3>Distance</h3>

The distance traveled is the sum of the lengths of each leg of the trip:

  17 m + 13 m = 30 m

You have traveled a distance of 30 m.

<h3>Displacement</h3>

The displacement is the distance from your final position to your starting position. If you draw a diagram of the journey, you see the displacement is the hypotenuse of a right triangle with legs 17 m and 13 m. The Pythagorean theorem can help you find this length:

  h = √(a² +b²)

  h = √(17² +13²) = √(289 +169) = √458 ≈ 21.401

At the end of your walking, you are 21.4 m from where you started.
