It is c the volume of the smaller pyramid cannot be determined
Answer:
(-2,3)
Step-by-step explanation:
For the point to be 2/3 of the way; it means it divides AB into the ratio 2 to 1
Now, we can use the internal section formula to get the coordinates of this point
(x,y) = (nx1 + mx2)/(m + n), (ny1 + my2)/(m + n)
where (m,n) = (2,1)
(x1,y1) = (-4,-1)
(x2,y2) = (5,5)
(x,y) = (1(-4) + 2(-1)/(1+2), (1(-1)+2(5)/(1+2)
(x,y) = (-4-2)/3, (-1 + 10)/3
(x,y) = (-2,3)
0=40+3x
0=120x
Calculate the product
0=120x
Swap sides of the equation
120x=0
Divide both sides
X=0
We have, by function notation, that
f(2)=3(2)=5
now we have
2x-3=5
2x=8
x=4
So the answer to this is 4
Hope this helped :)
Have a great day
