Answer:
(6.2, 4.5)
Step-by-step explanation:
We want, for some point P, ...
(P -A) / (B -P) = 1 / 3
3(P -A) = (B - P) . . . . . multiply by 3
4P = B +3A . . . . . . . . add P+3A
P = (B +3A)/4 . . . . . . .divide by 4
Filling in the coordinate values, we can find P to be ...
P = ((2.3, 5.4) +3(7.5, 4.2))/4 = (2.3+22.5, 5.4+12.6)/4
P = (6.2, 4.5)
Hey there! I'm happy to help!
To turn a fraction into a decimal, you simply divide the numerator by the denominator!
1÷3=0.3333333333.... (the 3s never end!)
Have a wonderful day! :D
Use easy numbers if you get confused on problems like these.
I'm going to use 12 instead of c.
Since you have 12 pieces of candy and 6 friends, each friend would get 2 pieces, because 12/6=2.
Now, substitute c for 12, and you get c/6.
Hope this helps!
You take (8x - 6) then add 80 =90 then solve for x
8x-6+80 =90
x= 2
