When we are to divide the line segment such that the ratio is 1:2, there are actually 3 parts of the segment. First, we determine the distance between the coordinates and divide the distance by 3. Then, we add the quotient to the x-coordinate.

x-coordinate:    (2 - 9) / 3 = -7/3
y-coordinate:    (6 - 3 ) / 3 = 1

Adding them to the coordinates of a,
           x - coordinate: (9 - 7/3) = 20/3
           y - coordinate: (3 + 1) = 4
Thus, the coordinates are (20/3, 4).

The sum of two consecutive integers is 4,031. What are the integers?
Sati [7]
They are 2015 and 2016.

divide 4031 by 2, and get rid of the decimal:
You will get 2015.
2015+2015 = 4030
2015+2016=4031

X = -2y + 300 3y = 800 - 4x
devlian [24]

Answer:

<h2>x = 140, y = 80</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}x=-2y+300&(1)\\3y=800-4x&(2)\end{array}\right\\\\\text{Substitute (1) to (2):}\\\\3y=800-4(-2y+300)\qquad\text{use the distributive property:}\ a(b+c)=ab+ac\\\\3y=800+(-4)(-2y)+(-4)(300)\\\\3y=800+8y-1200\\\\3y=8y-400\qquad\text{subtract}\ 8y\ \text{from both sides}\\\\-5y=-400\qquad\text{divide both sides by (-5)}\\\\y=80\\\\\text{Put it to (1):}\\\\x=-2(80)+300\\\\x=-160+300\\\\x=140
