The coordinates of A will be (2P +M)/3
= (2(16, 14) +(1, 4))/3 = (33/3, 32/3) = (11, 32/3)

The appropriate choice is
(C) (11, 32/3)

_____
You will note that the coordinates of A are the weighted average of the coordinates of the end points. The weighting is the reverse of the ratio of the line segments. That is, the point adjacent to the shortest segment gets the highest weighting. (This is typical of the solution to "mixture" problems.)

borishaifa [10]

Answer:

10, 11, 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

Let x be equal to the smallest integer.

Let x+1 and x+2 be equal to the consecutive integers.

We're given that:

⇒ smallest integer + 2 × middle integer = 20 + largest integer

Construct an equation:

$(x)+2(x+1)=20+(x+2)$

Combine like terms:

$(x)+2(x+1)=20+(x+2)\\x+2x+2=20+x+2\\3x+2=22+x\\2x=20\\x=10$

Therefore, the smallest integer is 10.

This makes the consecutive integers 11 and 12.

I hope this helps!

Answer:

$19.55\pm2.145$

Step-by-step explanation:

We use the equation $\bar x\pm z^*\sigma/\sqrt n$ , where $\bar x=19.55$ , $\sigma=6.33$ , $n=41$ , and $z^*=2.17$ . We obtain $z^*$ from the z-score of a 0.97 confidence level.
