Answer:
Both can be true irrespective of the common difference.
Given:
Endpoints of segment AB are A(- 18, 5) and B(- 4, 5).
Point Z is located exactly 1/8 of the distance from A to B.
To find:
The value of the x-coordinate of point Z.
Solution:
Point Z is located exactly 1/8 of the distance from A to B.
AZ:AB=1:8
AZ:ZB = AZ:(AB-AZ)= 1:(8-1) = 1:7
It means point Z divided segment AB in 1:7.
Using section formula, the x coordinate of point Z is
Therefore, the required x-coordinate of point Z is -16.25.
Answer:
y = - 9
Step-by-step explanation:
Substitute in -1 for x
8(-1) - 2y = 10
-8 - 2y = 10
Subtract -8 from both sides
-8 - (-8) cancels out to 0
10 - (-8) = 18
We are left with:
-2y = 18
Divide by -2 on both sides.
-2y/-2 = y
18/-2 = -9
y = -9
The <u>correct answer</u> is:
18.
Explanation:
There were 303 people surveyed total.
There were 64 people with brown eyes and black hair; that makes the percentage of the population 64/303 = 21.12% ≈ 21%.
There were 9 people with blue eyes and black hair; that makes the percentage of the population 9/303 = 2.97% ≈ 3%.
This means the percentage of students with brown eyes and black hair was greater than the percentage of students with blue eyes and black hair by:
21-3 = 18%.
