\bf \left. \qquad  \right.\textit{internal division of a line segment}
\\\\\\
A(5,0)\qquad C(x,y)\qquad
\qquad 2:5
\\\\\\
\cfrac{AB}{BC} = \cfrac{2}{5}\implies \cfrac{A}{C}=\cfrac{2}{5}\implies 5A=2C\implies 5(5,0)=2(x,y)\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
{ B=\left(\cfrac{\textit{sum of "x" values}}{\textit{sum of ratios}}\quad ,\quad \cfrac{\textit{sum of "y" values}}{\textit{sum of ratios}}\right)}

\bf -------------------------------\\\\
B=\left(\cfrac{(5\cdot 5)+(2\cdot x)}{2+5}\quad ,\quad \cfrac{(5\cdot 0)+(2\cdot y)}{2+5}\right)=\boxed{(8,0)}
\\\\\\
B=\left( \cfrac{25+2x}{7}~~,~~\cfrac{0+2y}{7} \right)=(8,0)\implies 
\begin{cases}
\cfrac{25+2x}{7}=8\\\\
25+2x=56\\
2x=31\\\\
\boxed{x=\cfrac{31}{2}}\\
-------\\
\cfrac{0+2y}{7}=0\\\\
2y=0\\
\boxed{y=0}

Answer:

(\frac{31}{2},0)

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given figure it is clear that the coordinates of points are A(5,0) and B(8,0).

Let the coordinates of C are (a,b).

Section formula:

If a point K divides a line segment PQ in m:n and end point of segment are P(x_1,y_1) and Q(x_2,y_2), then the coordinates of point K are

K=(\dfrac{mx_2+nx_1}{m+n},\dfrac{my_2+ny_1}{m+n})

It is given that point B divides the line AC in 2:5.

Using section formula the coordinates of B are

B=(\dfrac{(2)(a)+(5)(5)}{2+5},\dfrac{(2)(b)+(5)(0)}{2+5})

B=(\dfrac{2a+25}{7},\dfrac{2b}{7})

We know that B(8,0).

(8,0)=(\dfrac{2a+25}{7},\dfrac{2b}{7})

On comparing both sides we get

8=\dfrac{2a+25}{7}

56=2a+25

56-25=2a

31=2a

\frac{31}{2}=a

Similarly,

0=\dfrac{2b}{7}\Rightarrow 0=2b\Rightarrow b=0

Therefore, the coordinates of C are (\frac{31}{2},0).

M is directly proportional to r squared
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

m=84

r:m = 1:7

therefore when r= 1 then M=14

r = 12 \\ m = 7 \times 12 \\ m = 84

I think that's how you do it

Find the value of x.
swat32

Answer:

x=9.6

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we have to find a similarity statement including x with 3 other values. One that we can do is long leg/hypotenuse=long leg/hypotenuse. If we use the small triangle we can get x/12 (x being long leg, 12 being hypotenuse), and using the big triangle we can get 16/20 (16 being long, 12 being hypotenuse). So, if x/12=16/20, we can solve and get that x=9.6

Sid has a water dispenser in his refrigerator as shown in the figure.
brilliants [131]
The total space the water dispenser will take is equal to their volume.

Volume of one water dispenser = Length x Width x Height

So,

Volume = 4 x 8 x 14 = 448 in³

This is the volume on 1 dispenser. The volume of 3 dispensers will be = 3 x 448 = 1344 in³

This means, the 3 water dispensers will take 1344 cubic inches of space in Sid's refrigerator. So the correct answer is Fourth option

Vem created a website for his school's sports teams. He has a hit counter on his site that lets him know
AlladinOne [14]

Using technology, the linear regression equation by fitting the data in the table is ŷ = 2.4x + 11. The predicted number of hits they will be recorded on day 15 is 47.

Using technology such as a regression calculator or excel ;

The regression equation which models the data is ;

  • ŷ = 2.4x + 11

  • <em>Slope</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>2.4</em><em> </em><em>;</em><em> </em><em>intercept</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>11</em><em> </em>

<u>The</u><u> </u><u>number</u><u> </u><u>of</u><u> </u><u>hits</u><u> </u><u>recorded</u><u> </u><u>on</u><u> </u><u>day</u><u> </u><u>15</u><u> </u><u>:</u>

<u>Substitute x = 15 into the equation</u> :

ŷ = 2.4(15) + 11

ŷ = 47

Therefore, the predicted number of hits on day 15 is 47 hits.
