Answer:

The coordinates of M are (2,-8)

Step-by-step explanation:

The coordinates of the point that divides the line segment joining

A(x_1,y_1) to B(x_2,y_2) in the ratio m:n is given by:

(\frac{mx_2+nx_1}{m+n},\frac{my_2+ny_1}{m+n})

If A is at (-4,-2) and B is at (4. -10) and the ratio is 3:1.

Then

(\frac{3(4)+1(-4)}{3+1},\frac{3(-10)+1(-2)}{3+1})

(\frac{8}{4},\frac{-32}{4})

The coordinates of M are (2,-8)

Twice the product of 3and a number exceeds the sum of the number and 80 by 10.what is the number?
Hatshy [7]
First, create an equation with the criteria given.

If we let x be your number,
2(3x) = 80 + x + 10
(2(3x) is twice the product of 3 and x, and if it exceeds x+80 by 10, then we add 10 to x+80 to make the two sides of the equation equal.)

Now, solve for x.

6x=90+x \\ 5x=90 \\ x=18
