Answer:

4.33 : 6.49

Step-by-step explanation:

Given endpoints as A(-7,-2) and (2,4) find the length of the segment

d=√ (x₂-x₁) + (y₂-y₁)²

d=√ (2--7)² + (4--2)²

d=√ 9² + 6²

d= √ 81 +36

d=√117 =10.82

The partition is at (-3.4,0.4)

The length from A to the partition will be

A(-7,-2)    (-3.4,0.4)

√ (-3.4--7)² + (0.4--2)²

√ 3.6²+2.4²

√18.72 = 4.33

Length of segment from partition to end point B

(-3.4,0.4)   ,  B(2,4)

√(2--3.4)²+(4-0.4)²

√ 5.4² + 3.6²

√42.12

=6.49

The ration that results from the partition of the segment is;

4.33 : 6.49

Take the sqrt of both sides of <span>(x+2)^2=10:

x+2 = plus or minus sqrt(10)

Solve for x:  x = -2 plus or minus sqrt(10)

Evaluate x:  x = -2 + sqrt(10)  AND  x = -2 - sqrt(10)       (answers)

En said the value of the expression 72-8^2 +6*3 is 50. What mistake did Ben make? Correct Ben’s mistake and give the value of th
posledela

Given:

72-\frac{8}{2}+6\times3

He does mistake in the order of giving preference.

We should give preference in the order, division, multiplication, addition, subtraction.

But, he gave the first preferrence to the subtraction.

72-8=64

Next, he used division

64/2=32

Next he adds 32 with 8.

So, he gets 50.

But the actual simplification is,

Simplifying we get,

\begin{gathered} 72-\frac{8}{2}+6\times3=72-4+18 \\ =68+18 \\ =86 \end{gathered}

Hence, the correct value of the expression is 86.
