Answer:

y - 7 = -4/3(x + 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given</u>

  • y =3/4x -4
  • (-1, 7)

<u>Convert to point slope form</u>

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

m: represents what the slope is

y - 7 = -4/3(x + 1)

<u>Distribute -4/3</u>

-4/3 * x = -4/3x

-4/3 * 1 = -4/3

y - 7 = -4/3x - 4/3

<u>Add seven in both sides</u>

21/3 -4/3 = 17/3

y = -4/3x + 17/2

<u>Answer</u>

linear equation: y = -4/3x + 17/2

point-slope form: y - 7 = -4/3(x + 1)

Serjik [45]

Answer:

(-2, 6)

Step-by-step explanation:

Since you want a 1 to 7 ratio, you want to divide the line into 2 parts, where one part has a length of 1 and the other has a length of 7. So the total length of the line is 8.

Start by looking at the difference in the X and Y coordinates.

X = | -4 - 12 | = | -16 | = 16

Y = | 7 - -1 | = | 8 | = 8

You could calculate the length of the line using pythagorian's theorem, but that's not needed. Simply use similar triangles. We have a right triangle with legs of length 16 and length 8. We want a similar triangle that is 1/8th as large (to get the desired 1 to 7 ratio). So divide both legs by 8, getting lengths of 16/8 = 2, and 8/8 = 1.

Now add those calculated offsets to point A.

A has an X coordinate of -4 and B has an X coordinate of 12 and the X coordinate for C must be between those limits. So calculate -4 + 2 = -2 to get the X coordinate for C.

The Y coordinate of A is 7 and the Y coordinate of B is -1. And since the Y coordinate must be between then, you have 7 - 1 = 6.

So the coordinates for C is (-2, 6)

Answer:

64=2 \cdot 2 \cdot 2 \cdot 2 \cdot 2 \cdot 2=2^6

Step-by-step explanation:

Gabrielle and John each

wrote the prime factorization of 64.

64 can be break into 32 times 2

32 can be break into 16 times 2

16 can be break into 8 and 2

8 can be break into 4 times 2

4 can be break into 2 times 2

So 64 is equal to 2 times 2 times 2 times 2 times 2 times 2

64=2^6
