Convert 1 and 1/2 to eights to make it easier to subtract. 1 4/8 add 1 to 4/8
12/8 then subtract that by 7/8 straight across the numerator. That then equals 5/8

If y = 2x2 – 4x, what is the value of y when x equals 5. A.10 B.30 C.80 D.480

Ainat [17]

Answer:

The value of y in the given equation is B. 30.

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 2x² - 4x x = 5

y = 2(5)² - 4(5) Plug 5 in for x

y = 2(25) - 20 Square 5 and multiply 4 by 5

y = 50 - 20 Multiply 2 by 25

y = 30

Segment CD has point E located on it such that CE:ED = 3:5. If the endpoints are located at C(5, -6) and D(11,18) then what are

wlad13 [49]

Answer:

E(29/4,3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Segment CD has point E located on it such that CE:ED = 3:5

The coordinates of C and D are (5, -6) and (11,18) respectively.

We need to find the coordinates of E. Let the coordinates are (x,y). Using section formula to find it as follows :

$(x,y)=(\dfrac{m_1x_2+m_2x_1}{m_1+m_2},\dfrac{m_1y_2+m_2y_1}{m_1+m_2})\\\\(x,y)=(\dfrac{3(11)+5(5)}{3+5},\dfrac{3(18)+5(-6)}{3+5})\\\\=\dfrac{29}{4},3$
