8 gorrilas

Explanation:

The ratio of monkeys to gorrila = 5:2

This means there are 5 monkeys for every 2 gorrilas

when there are 20 monkeys,

let the number of gorrilas = x

5 monkeys = 2 gorrilas

20 monkeys = x

cross multiply:

5(x) = 20(2)

5x = 40

divide both sides by 5:

5x/5 = 40/5

x = 8

Hence, if there were 20 monkeys, we would have 8 gorrilas.

Find the point, M, that divides segment AB into a ratio of 5:2 if A is at (1, 2) and B is at (8, 16).
d1i1m1o1n [39]
Since M divides segment AB into a ratio of 5:2, we can say that M is 5/(5+2) of the length of AB. Therefore 5/7 × AB.
distance of AB = d
5/7×(x2 - x1) for the x and 5/7×(y2 - y1) for the y
5/7×(8 - 1) = 5/7 (7) = 5 for the x
and 5/7×(16 - 2) = 5/7 (14) = 10 for the y
But remember the line AB starts at A (1, 2),
so add 1 to the x: 5+1 = 6
and add 2 to the y: 10+2 = 12
Therefore the point M lies exactly at...
A) (6, 12)
