Answer:

  • (-8, -4)

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>Given</h3>
  • Line segment JL with J(8, -8) and L(-16, -2)
<h3>To find</h3>
  • Coordinates of K if K divides JL two-thirds from J
<h3>Solution</h3>
  • JK = 2/3JL

<u>Coordinates of K</u>

  • x = 8 + 2/3(-16 - 8) = 8 + 2/3(-24) = 8 - 16 = - 8
  • y = -8 + 2/3(-2 - (-8)) = -8 + 2/3(6) = -8 + 4 = - 4
  • K = (-8, -4)

A rectangular tank measuring 50 cm x 30 cm x 60 cm was completely filled with water. 1 5 of the water in the tank was transferre
Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

<em>72,000cm³</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of the rectangular tank = Length *  Width * Height

Given

Length = 50cm

Width = 30cm

Height = 60cm

Get the volume:

Volume = 50*30*60

Volume = 90,000cm³

Hence the volume of the rectangular tank is 90,000cm³.

If 1/5 of the volume of water was transferred to another tank, the volume transferred will be:

Amount transferred = 1/5 * 90,000

Amount transferred = 18000cm³

Amount left in the tank = 90,000 - 18,000

<em>Amount of water left in the tank = 72,000cm³</em>

laiz [17]

Hello, this is a linear problem so we are working with y = mx + b

The problem tells us:

y = total cost

x = the megabytes of data that she used in a month

b = y-intercept, which is the initial value

The problem asks "Which part of the graph will represent the cost per megabyte of data used in each plan?"

It is asking for cost per megabyte... This is a rate. and m = slope = rate

So lets, reiterate.

y = total cost

x = the megabytes of data that she used in a month

b = y-intercept, which is the initial value

m = slope = rate = cost per megabyte of data used

Answer: The slopes of the two lines.

A box of 25 light bulbs is shipped to a hardware store.when it arrives,four of the bulbs are broken.predict the number of broken
anyanavicka [17]
First you need to divide 125 / 25 which is 5 then you do subtraction 21 x 5 which is 105, then you subtract again 125 - 105 which is 20, 20 light bulbs will be broken. Or you could have just multiplied 5 by 4 which is the amount of light bulbs that were broken which is a lot easier...
