Given:
Endpoints of a segment are (0,0) and (27,27).
To find:
The points of trisection of the segment.
Solution:
Points of trisection means 2 points between the segment which divide the segment in 3 equal parts.
First point divide the segment in 1:2 and second point divide the segment in 2:1.
Section formula: If a point divides a line segment in m:n, then

Using section formula, the coordinates of first point are



Using section formula, the coordinates of first point are



Therefore, the points of trisection of the segment are (9,9) and (18,18).
Answer:
Area of the shaded region= 
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of the shaded region= Area of the triangle- Area of the rectangle
Dimensions of the triangle:
Base= 40 inch
Height= 40 inch
Area of a triangle=

Area of the rectangle= Length*Width
Length=30 inch
Width=10 inch
Area:

Area of the shaded region= 
Answer:
1. x = -1.5y
2. 5 (2x-3)
3. p = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
1) Simplifying
7x + 2y + -3x + 4y = 0
Reorder the terms:
7x + -3x + 2y + 4y = 0
Combine like terms: 7x + -3x = 4x
4x + 2y + 4y = 0
Combine like terms: 2y + 4y = 6y
4x + 6y = 0
Solving
4x + 6y = 0
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-6y' to each side of the equation.
4x + 6y + -6y = 0 + -6y
Combine like terms: 6y + -6y = 0
4x + 0 = 0 + -6y
4x = 0 + -6y
Remove the zero:
4x = -6y
Divide each side by '4'.
x = -1.5y
Simplifying
x = -1.5y
2)
Common factor
10x - 15
5 (2x-3)
3) Simplifying
5p = 3p + 8
Reorder the terms:
5p = 8 + 3p
Solving
5p = 8 + 3p
Solving for variable 'p'.
Move all terms containing p to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-3p' to each side of the equation.
5p + -3p = 8 + 3p + -3p
Combine like terms: 5p + -3p = 2p
2p = 8 + 3p + -3p
Combine like terms: 3p + -3p = 0
2p = 8 + 0
2p = 8
Divide each side by '2'.
p = 4
Simplifying
p = 4
