Step-by-step explanation:
y — yı = m(x – xı) equation of a line
Points A(1,3) and B(2,1)
Slope (m) = (y2 – y1) / (x2 – x1)
(1 –3) / (2 – 1)
–2/1
–2
Thus, y –3 = –2 (x – 1)
y – 3 = –2x + 2
y –3 + 3 = –2x + 2 + 3
y = –2x + 5
2x=1
10x+2=7
subtract 2 from both sides
10x=5
divide 10 on both sides
x=1/2, 0.5, or 5/10
Use 1/2 to solve '2x'
2*(1/2)=1
The length of the line would be 2 1/16
so you have the amount.
amount: 1200
then you have the ratio
ratio: 3:5
you have the count.
count: 2
and then you have the shares
shares: 8
and the amount per share is 150.00
so the total amount of shares is the sum of each person's ratio so,
so 1:5:2:3:9 = 1 + 5 + 2 + 3 +9 = 20 shares. hope that helps you..
