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)

Please need help<br> Find area of shaded region.<br> Round to the nearest tenth
vlabodo [156]

Answer:

818.4 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

The area (A) of the shaded region is

A = area of circle - ( area of white sector + area of triangle )

  = ( π × 27.8²) - (π × 27.8² × \frac{210}{360} +(0.5 × 27.8 ×27.8 × sin150°)

  = 2427.95 - (1416.30 + 193.21 )

  = 2427.95 - 1609.51 ≈ 818.4 in²
