let's first off take a peek at those values.

let's say the point with those coordinates is point C, so C is 3/10 of the way from A to B.

meaning, we take the segment AB and cut it in 10 equal pieces, AC takes 3 pieces, and CB takes 7 pieces, namely AC and CB are at a 3:7 ratio.


\bf ~~~~~~~~~~~~\textit{internal division of a line segment}
\\\\\\
A(-4,-8)\qquad B(11,7)\qquad
\qquad \stackrel{\textit{ratio from A to B}}{3:7}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{A\underline{C}}{\underline{C} B} = \cfrac{3}{7}\implies \cfrac{A}{B} = \cfrac{3}{7}\implies 7A=3B\implies 7(-4,-8)=3(11,7)\\\\[-0.35em]
~\dotfill\\\\
C=\left(\frac{\textit{sum of "x" values}}{\textit{sum of ratios}}\quad ,\quad \frac{\textit{sum of "y" values}}{\textit{sum of ratios}}\right)\\\\[-0.35em]
~\dotfill


\bf C=\left(\cfrac{(7\cdot -4)+(3\cdot 11)}{3+7}\quad ,\quad \cfrac{(7\cdot -8)+(3\cdot 7)}{3+7}\right)
\\\\\\
C=\left( \cfrac{-28+33}{10}~~,~~\cfrac{-56+21}{10} \right)\implies C=\left( \cfrac{5}{10}~~,~~\cfrac{-35}{10} \right)
\\\\[-0.35em]
\rule{34em}{0.25pt}\\\\
~\hfill C=\left( \frac{1}{2}~,~-\frac{7}{2} \right)~\hfill

oksian1 [2.3K]
4n-3=4n-2  subtract 4n from both sides

-3=-2 

Since -3!=-2, there is no solution.

So your answer is a.

If y = -x² + 14x + 7 , then x = 10 is a counterexample for which conjecture?
Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

The correct answer is B

Step-by-step explanation:

If we plug in x=10 to the equation, we get y=47

Since y is positive, A is not an counterexample

Since y is a function of x, C is not an counterexample

Since the graph of y is a parabola, D is not an counterexample

Hope this helped and mark as brainliest!
