-12x = -48

-12x/-12 = -48/-12

x = 4

hope this helps

Determine the ratio in which the point (–6, m) divides the join of A(–3, –1) and B(–8, 9). Also, find the value of m.

PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

Ratio = 3 : 2 and value of m = 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the end points ( -3,-1 ) and ( -8,9 ) of a line and a point P = ( -6,m ) divides this line in a particular ratio.

Let us assume that it cuts the line in k : 1 ratio.

Then, the co-ordinates of P = $( \frac{-8k-3}{k+1},\frac{9k-1}{k+1} )$ .

But, $\frac{-8k-3}{k+1}$ = -6

i.e. -8k-3 = -6k-6

i.e. -2k = -3

i.e. $k = \frac{3}{2}$

So, the ratio is k : 1 i.e $\frac{3}{2} : 1$ i.e. 3 : 2.

Hence, the ratio in which P divides the line is 3 : 2.

Also, $\frac{9k-1}{k+1}$ = m where $k = \frac{3}{2}$

i.e. m = $\frac{\frac{9 \times 3}{2}-1}{\frac{3}{2}-1}$

i.e. m = $\frac{27-2}{3+2}$

i.e. m = $\frac{25}{5}$

i.e. m = 5.

Hence, the value of m is 5.

Area= 169(pie)mm(squared)<br><br> What's the radius and diameter

Natali [406]

You would have to divide by 3.14 to find the radius squared, and to find the diameter, just add the radius plus the radius.

Angelina has 5 cakes. she wants to cut then inti 2/5 pieces. how many pieces will she be able to cut

atroni [7]

So pretty much you can get 2 pieces out of each cake with 1/2 left over. Now do this, 2+2+2+2+2=10 now take that 1/2 and do this .5+.5+.5+.5+.5= 2.5 now add that to the 10 and that is your answer
