Answer:
C. (-1.5, 8.875)
Step-by-step explanation:
on a coordinate plane if point(x1,y1) and (x2,y2) is divided by a point p in ratio of m:n then coordinate of point p is given by
p = (nx1 + mx2/ m+n, ny1+my2/m+n)
_______________________________________________
Given point
A (-9, 4) and B (11, 17)
ratio 3:5
m:n = 3:5
m+n = 3+5 = 8
coordinate of point p that partition AB
x = (5*-9 + 3*11) / 5+3 y = (5*4 + 3*17) / 5+3
x = (-45 + 33) / 8 y = (20 + 51) / 8
x = (-12) / 8 y = (71) / 8
x = -3 / 2 = -1.5 y = 8.875
Thus, coordinate of point p is (-1.5, 8.875).
Answer:
-2/5
2
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope is rise over run according to my former algebra teacher, but I learned it differently (still correct tho).
The first moves 2 units down so negative 2, and moves 5 units right, so -2/5 since the rise is -2, and run is 5.
The second one moves 2 x-units for every 1 y-unit, so the slope is 2,
Here's the solution ~
The given points are : (-7 , -4) and (1 , 1)
now, let's use distance formula to find the distance between them !
3 5/7 x 2 6/7
= 3.71428564 x 2.8571428
= 10.6 ft^2 (3 sig. fig.)
2/9 = 0.2222(repeating)
I hope this helps :)
