Answer:

Something like this

Step-by-step explanation:

distance √(-1 - 5)² + (-6 - -4)² = √36 + 4 = √40 = 6.32

slope = 2/-6 = -1/3

distance (-1,-4) to (0, -4.63)

√(-1 - 0)² + (-4 - -4.63...)² = √1.4 = 1.18

6.32 - 1.18 = 5.14

1.18 : 5.14

Answer:

ratio 5:1

coordinates (0,-13/3)

Step-by-step explanation:

let any point on y-axis  (0,y)  divides the join of A(5,-6) and B(-1,-4) in the ratio k:1

0=\frac{-1(k)+1(5)}{k+1} \\or~0=-k+5\\or~ k=5\\\therefore ~y-axis~ divides ~A,B~in~the~ratio~5:1\\y=\frac{5(-4)+1(-6)}{5+1} =\frac{-26}{6} =-\frac{13}{3}

so coordinates of point of intersection are (0,-13/3)

This system of equations has an infinite number of solutions. Define the solutions algebraically, and allow z to represent all r
Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

x = 12z + 1  and y = 10z - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the system of equations, we can use the substitution method

If we call

3x - 4y + 4z = 7 I

x - y - 2z = 2 II

2x - 3y + 6z = 5 III

Clearing II  x = 2 + y + 2z

Now, replacing II in III

2(2 + y + 2z) - 3y +6z = 5

4 + 2y + 4z - 3y + 6z = 5

10z - y = 1 from here y = 10z - 1

Finally, replacing y in I

3x - 4(10z - 1) + 4z = 7

3x -40z + 4 + 4z = 7

3x - 36z = 3

3x = 36z + 3

x = 12z + 1

Done
