Answer:
a segment is partitioned at a ratio of 1:3, then the point is one-fourth of the distance from (-4,-1) to (2,7).
To compute the x-coordinate of that point, you will need to compute one-fourth of the x-distance between 2 and -4 then add it to -4: (2--4)/4 = 1.5; 1.5 + -4 = -2.5.
To compute the y-coordinate of that point, you will need to compute one-fourth of the y-distance between 7 and -1 then add it to -1: (7--1)/4 = 2; 2 + -1 = 1.
The point is (-2.5,1)
Answer:166
Step-by-step explanation:438x.38=166
438 being the total amount of students
.38 being the 38% involved (moved percentage two to the left to make it a decimal)
Answer:-4
Step-by-step explanation:
Subtract 5 from each side, which leaves you with 3x=-12. Then divide each side by 3. Then that leaves you with x=-4
Answer:
x = 5.142
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>2=-74+14x</em>
if you want to make x the subject (work out its value), you need to single out x
1) the first thing that we can do is get rid of the -74
2) do this by adding it on to both sides of the equation. This is called the inverse
<em>2+-74=-72 -74+14x=14x</em>
<em>-72=14x</em>
3) to get x on its own, we now need to get rid of the 14
REMEMBER:<em> 14x = 14×x</em>
4) We do the inverse by dividing both sides by 14
<em>-72÷14=-5.142..</em>.
its surprising that its not an integer
<em>5.142=x</em>
<em>x=5.142 </em>
PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF THIS IS CORRECT
