<span>M can have a coordinate of (-9) or (1) There are potentially 3 different places for point M to go. It can be placed to the left of point A, between points A and B, and to the right of point B. Let's check those three possibilities. 1. Left of point A. This works if the distance between M and A is the same as the distance between A and B. So distance between A and B = 6 - (-1.5) = 6 + 1.5 = 7.5 So the location for M would be -1.5 - 7.5 = -9 So point M can have the value of -9. 2. Between A and B. This would also work. Since we want a 1:2 ratio, place M one third of the way from A to B. Since we already know the distance between A and B to be 7.5, that means that we should add 7.5/3 = 2.5 to the value of A. So -1.5 + 2.5 = 1 So point M can also have the value of 1. 3. To the right of point B This won't work. Point B will always be closer to M than point A will be. So it's impossible to get a ratio of 1:2.</span>

Answer:

86

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Perimeter of WXY = WSY+WRX+XY</u>

<em>--> WSY = SY x 2</em>

--> WSY = 16 x 2 = 32

<em>Since it is an isosceles triangle, WRX = WSY</em>

--> WRX = 32

<em>--> Draw a straight line from W to XY to divide it into two halves assuming it to be point A. This would form a right angle triangle of WAX.</em>

<em>--> Solve it using the cos theta rule</em>

--> Angle = Angle X = 70°

    Hypotenuse = WRX = 32

    Adjacent = WA = ?

<em>--> Cos (Angle) = Adjacent/Hypotenuse</em>

    Cos (70) = WA/32

    WA = 10.9 rounded off to 11

--> WA=AY= 11

--> XY = WA + AY = 11+11 = 22

<em>--> Perimeter = WSY+WRX+XY</em>

    Perimeter = 32+32+22

    Perimeter = 86

Therefore, the perimeter of WXY is 86.
