What are the coordinates of the point on the directed line segment from (3, 3) to (7,−5) that partitions the segment into a rati

Annette [7]

Answer:

The coordinates of the point is (5.5, -2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay, what we want to do here is to get the point that divides the line that joins the points (3,3) to (7,-5) in the ratio 5 to 3

Generally, given the ratio a:b and we want to divide the line joining the points (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) in that ratio, we use the condensed formula below;

Let’s call the point dividing the line in the given ratio z.

The coordinates of Z is;

{(bx1 + ax2)/(a+b), (by1 + ay2)/(a+b)}

In this question (x1,y1) = (3,3)

While (x2,y2) = (7,-5)

while a:b = 5:3

Substituting these values into the coordinate equation for point z, we have ;

{((3(3) + 5(7))/(5+3), ((3)(3) + 5(-5))/(5+3)}

= {44/8 , -16/8} = {5.5, -2}

posledela

Answer:

<u>After (3/2) months Tyler's gym would be a better deal.</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x the number of months

Cody's Gym charges a $15 fee to join and $30 per month

y₁= 15 + 30x (1)

Tyler's Gym charges a $30 fee to join and $20 per month

y₂ = 15 + 30x (2)

See the attached figure which represent the graph of y₁ (with blue color) and y₂ (with red color)

The point of intersection between y₁ and y₂ is ( 3/2 , 60)

After 3/2 months Tyler's Gym charges will be less than Cody's Gym charges

So, the inequality will be:

<u>After (3/2) months Tyler's gym would be a better deal.</u>
