B. Sometimes because in learned that it isn't always that way.
Answer:
(0,2)
Step-by-step explanation:
2:4 means one part is 2/(2+4)=1/3 of AB and the other part is 2/3 of AB
Add 1/3 of the distance from -2 to 4. (1/3)(4+2)=2. -2+2=0 The x coordinate is 0
Subtract 1/3 of the distance from 6 to -6, (1/3)6+6)=4 6-4=2 The y coordinate is 2
The point is (0,2)
y - 1 = ⁵/₆(x - 4)
y - 1 = ⁵/₆(x) - ⁵/₆(4)
y - 1 = ⁵/₆x - 3¹/₃
+ 1 + 1
y = ⁵/₆x - 2¹/₃
⁻⁵/₆x + y = ⁵/₆x - ⁵/₆x - 2¹/₃
-6(⁻⁵/₆x + y) = -6(-2¹/₃)
-6(⁻⁵/₆x) - 6(y) = 14
5x - 6y = 14
This is how you solve it; but first of all convert the percent into a decimal;55%= 0.55
0.55x = 164 (divide by 0.55 on both sides)
x = 164/0.55
x = 298.18 (rounded to the nearest hundredth)
so 164 is 55% of 298.18(rounded)
