Answer:
(-9.5, -4)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the ratio a:b (a to b) of two segments formed by a point of partition, and the endpoints of the original segment, we can calculate the point of partition using this formula:
.
Given two endpoints of the original segment
→ (-10, -8) [(x₁, y₁)] and (-8, 8) [(x₂, y₂)]
Along with the ratio of the two partitioned segments
→ 1 to 3 = 1:3 [a:b]
Formed by the point that partitions the original segment to create the two partitioned ones
→ (x?, y?)
We can apply this formula and understand how it was derived to figure out where the point of partition is.
Here is the substitution:
x₁ = -10
y₁ = -8
x₂ = -8
y₂ = 8
a = 1
b = 3

Now the reason why this
(First equation:Multiply 6•7=42. 42+5=47)=(second equation:7 to the 2nd power is 49. 49-2=47 )
Area = length x width
Perimeter = 2(l + w)
Let's imagine one of the sides is 6. The other side would have to be two, and the perimeter would be 16.
If one of the sides is 4, the perimeter would be 14.
If one of the sides is 1, the perimeter would be 26.
A number raised to the second power has an exponent above it. To the second power means the number multiplied by itself once.
x^2 is equal to (x)(x)
Hope this helps :)
