Step-by-step explanation:
Ok, so the third and fourth don't seem right. I am going to assume it's either 1 or 2. Sorry if you get it wrong because of me.
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
Let x = the number of green apples, let 4x = the number of red apples
4x + x = 50 Set up the quation
5x = 50 Combine like terms
---- ---- Divide by 5 on both sides to get x alone
5 5
x = 10 green apples
4x = 4(10) = 40 red apples
40 - 10 = 30. Suzanne bought 30 more red apples than green apples.
