<span>M can have a coordinate of (-9) or (1)
There are potentially 3 different places for point M to go. It can be placed to the left of point A, between points A and B, and to the right of point B. Let's check those three possibilities.
1. Left of point A. This works if the distance between M and A is the same as the distance between A and B. So
distance between A and B = 6 - (-1.5) = 6 + 1.5 = 7.5
So the location for M would be
-1.5 - 7.5 = -9
So point M can have the value of -9.
2. Between A and B.
This would also work. Since we want a 1:2 ratio, place M one third of the way from A to B. Since we already know the distance between A and B to be 7.5, that means that we should add 7.5/3 = 2.5 to the value of A. So
-1.5 + 2.5 = 1
So point M can also have the value of 1.
3. To the right of point B
This won't work. Point B will always be closer to M than point A will be. So it's impossible to get a ratio of 1:2.</span>
Answer:
222
Step-by-step explanation:
Let me know if it is correct!
4(1/2x7)=12 <=> x28/2=12
x=12*2/28=24/28=12/14=6/7
I think the answer is c sorry if I’m wrong
