Writing and solving an equation of ratios is the way to go here.  See if you can figure out why the following is correct:

x+3      x
----- = -------
  12     x+3

Then (x+3)^2 = 12x, and x^2 + 6x + 9 = 12x, so that x^2 - 6x + 9 = 0

This is the square of (x - 3).  Thus, x-3 = 0, and x = 3.

The value of x is 3.

Rina draws a plan of her school on a coordinate grid. She plots the school gate at point p(-8,-1) and the library at point Q(2,5
natka813 [3]

Answer:

The coordinates of the science lab is:

x = -14/3  ,  y = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

∵ P is (-8 , -1) and Q is (2 , 5)

∵ The point of the science lab is (x , y)

∵ The science lab point divided PQ at ratio 2 : 1 from Q (two thirds PQ)

∴ x=\frac{m_{1}x_{p}+m_{2}x_{q}}{m_{1}+m_{2}}

∴ y=\frac{m_{1}y_{p}+m_{2}y_{q}}{m_{1}+m_{2}}

∴ x=\frac{2(-8)+1(2)}{1+2}=\frac{-14}{3}

∴ y=\frac{2(-1)+1(5)}{2+1}=\frac{3}{3}=1

∴ The point of science lab = (-14/3 , 1)
