Bearing in mind that, the ratio here is 1:7 form A to B, that matters, because, the AB segment gets split in 8 pieces, and AP takes 1 slice whilst PB takes 7 slices

\bf \left. \qquad  \right.\textit{internal division of a line segment}
\\\\\\
A(-8,-3)\qquad B(6,12)\qquad
ratio1=1\qquad ratio2=7\qquad 1:7
\\\\\\
\cfrac{AP}{PB} = \cfrac{1}{7}\implies \cfrac{A}{B} = \cfrac{1}{7}\implies 7\cdot A=1\cdot B
\\\\\\
7(-8,-3)=1(6,12)\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\

\bf { P=\left(\cfrac{\textit{sum of "x" values}}{ratio1+ratio2}\quad ,\quad \cfrac{\textit{sum of "y" values}}{ratio1+ratio2}\right)}\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
P=\left(\cfrac{(7\cdot -8)+(1\cdot 6)}{1+7}\quad ,\quad \cfrac{(7\cdot -3)+(1\cdot 12)}{1+7}\right)

Trevor solved the system of equations below. What mistake did he make in his work?
storchak [24]
The answer is <span>He subtracted 10 from the right side instead of adding 10 to the right side

Let's solve it:
</span><span>2x + y = 5
x − 2y = 10
________
Rearrange first equation to get y:
y = 5 - 2x
________
Substitute y into the second equation:
x - 2(5 - 2x) = 10
________
Multiply the terms:
x - 10 + 4x = 10
________
Combine the terms:
5x - 10 = 10
________
Add 10 on the both sides of the equation:
5x = 10 + 10
5x = 20
x = 4</span>

The magnitude of a ra representation of a number as the product of a number that is greater than or equal to 1 but less than
kirill [66]

Answer:

<h3>C. Scientific Notation</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the number in question is greater than or equal to 1 but less than

10, we can choose any number between 1 and 10, lets take 3 for example.

If we take the product of 3 and an integer power of 10 number without regard to its sign, this can be expressed mathematically as shown;

3 * 10^{-5} where the power of 10 is -5. Note that any  real number can be used as the power since we are not regarding the sign (Here we used -5). The expression formed according to the expression in question is a SCIENTIFIC NOTATION i.e 3 * 10^{-5} gives us a scientific notation.

<em>Scientific notation is a means by which we represent very large or small numbers that are difficult to represent using a decimal notation</em>

Given: ∆ABC, AB = CB BD − median to AC E∈ AB ,F∈ BC AE = CF Prove: △ADE ≅ △CDF ΔBDE ≅ ΔBDF
NemiM [27]

Answer:

1) By SAS theorem, ΔADE≅ΔCDF

2) By SSS theorem, ΔBDE≅ΔBDF

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider isosceles triangle ABC (see diagram).

1. In triangles ADE and CDF:

  • AD≅DC (since BD is median, then it divides side AC in two congruent parts);
  • AE≅CF (given);
  • ∠A≅∠C (triangle ABC is isosceles, then angles adjacent to the base are congruent).

By SAS theorem, ΔADE≅ΔCDF.

2. In triangles BDE and BDF:

  • side BD is common;
  • DE≅DF (ΔADE≅ΔCDF, then congruent triangles have congruent corresponding sides);
  • BE≅FB (triangle ABC is isosceles, AB≅BC, AE≅CF, then BE=AB-AE, FB=BC-CF).

Be SSS theorem, ΔBDE≅ΔBDF.

Sliva [168]

Answer:

Simply subtract the fail rate from 100; the resulting number is the pass rate. So, if you know that 6 percent of students failed, you would subtract: 100 - 6 = 94 percent is the pass rate for the test.
