The answer is E.90

1/2 inches = 10 miles
9(1/2) inches = 4 1/2 inches
9(10) miles = 90 miles

Camille invested money into an account that earned annual simple interest with a rate of 6.5%. She made no additional deposits o

Answer:

$30341.88

Step-by-step explanation:

Because it says simple interest, use the formula I = Prt.

(I is interest, r is the % rate as a decimal, t is the time)

So, you have to solve the equation,

1755 = P (0.065)(9)

Since 0.065 x 9 = 0.585, the equation can be simplified to

1755 = 0.585P

Then, to get P, you divide both sides by 0.585

P = 1755/0.585 = $30341.88

the equation y=0.5x represents the distance henry hikes, in miles, over time, in hours. the graph represents the rate that clark

zheka24 [161]

I think there's supposed to be a picture here. Anyway, you can find out by finding the slope of the line on the graph and comparing it to .5 which is Henry's slope. If the graphed slope is larger than .5 then Clark hikes faster, if it is less than .5, Henry hikes faster.

Hope this helps :)

Segment AB has endpoints at A(-7,2) and b(9,-6). Point P lies on AB such that AP:BP=3:1

bekas [8.4K]

The coordinates of the point P which divides the line segment AB made by the points A(-7,2) and B(9,-6) is (x,y) = (5,-4)

<h3>What is the coordinate of the point which divides a line segment in a specified ratio?</h3>

Suppose that there is a line segment $\overline{AB}$ such that a point P(x,y) lying on that line segment $\overline{AB}$ divides the line segment $\overline{AB}$ in m:n, then, the coordinates of the point P is given by:

$(x,y) = \left( \dfrac{mx_2 + nx_1}{m+n} , \dfrac{my_2 + ny_1}{m+n} \right)$

where we have:

the coordinate of A is $(x_1, y_1)$
and the coordinate of B is $(x_2, y_2)$

We're given that:

Coordinate of A is $(x_1, y_1)$ = (-7,2)
Coordinate of B is $(x_2, y_2)$ = (9.-6)
The point P lies on AB such that AP:BP=3:1 (so m = 3, and n = 1)

Let the coordinate of P be (x,y), then we get the values of x and y as:

$(x,y) = \left( \dfrac{mx_2 + nx_1}{m+n} , \dfrac{my_2 + ny_1}{m+n} \right)\\\\(x,y) = \left( \dfrac{3(9) + 1(-7)}{3+1} , \dfrac{3(-6) + 1(2)}{3+1} \right)\\\\(x,y) = \left( \dfrac{20}{4} , \dfrac{-16}{4} \right) = (5,-4)$

Thus, the coordinates of the point P which divides the line segment AB made by the points A(-7,2) and B(9,-6) is (x,y) = (5,-4)
