Answer:

R = (- 3.5, - 7 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the Section formula

x_{R} = \frac{3(4)+5(-8)}{3+5} = \frac{12-40}{8} = \frac{-28}{8} = - 3.5

y_{R} = \frac{3(-2)+5(-10)}{3+5} = \frac{-6-50}{8} = \frac{-56}{8} = - 7

Thus coordinates of R = (- 3.5, - 7 )

Answer: (-0.8, -5.2)

Step-by-step explanation:

The coordinates of point P(x,y) divides a line segment with endpoints A(a,b) and B(c,d) in ration m:n is given by :-

x=\dfrac{mc+na}{m+n}\ ;\ n=\dfrac{md+nb}{m+n}

Given : Point R lies on the directed line segment from L (-8,-10) to M (4,-2) and partitions the segment in the ratio 3 to 5.

i.e. \dfrac{m}{m+n}=\dfrac{3}{3+2}

i.e. m:n = 3:2

The coordinates of R divide directed line segment from L (-8,-10) to M (4,-2) in ratio 3:2 will be :-

x=\dfrac{3(4)+2(-8)}{3+2}\ ;\ y=\dfrac{3(-2)+2(-10)}{3+2}\\\\ x=\dfrac{12-16}{5}\ ;\ y=\dfrac{-6-20}{5}\\\\ x=-0.8\ ;\ y=-5.2

The coordinates of R= (-0.8, -5.2)

I need help with this question plz

Answer:

y = 10/3x + 20

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to find the slope of the function. We can do that by using two points and inserting them into the slope formula. It can be any two but I'll just pick (3, 30) and (6, 40).

m = y₁ - y₂ / x₁ - x₂

m = 30 - 40 / 3 - 6

m = -10/-3

m = 10/3

Now we know the slope is 10/3.

In slope-intercept form, the y-intercept is the constant at the end of the equation. The table of values tells us that the y-intercept is located at (0, 20). So the equation of the linear function is y = 10/3x + 20.
