Find the point P that is 2/5 of the way from A to B on the directed line segment AB

The point P(–4, 4) that is \frac{2}{5} of the way from A to B on the directed line segment AB.

Solution:

The points of the line segment are A(–8, –2) and B(6, 19).

P is the point that bisect the line segment in \frac{2}{5}.

So, m = 2 and n = 5.

x_1=-8, y_1=-2, x_2=6, y_2=19

By section formula:

$P(x, y)=\left(\frac{mx_2+nx_1}{m+n}, \frac{my_2+ny_1}{m+n}\right)

$P(x, y)=\left(\frac{2\times 6+5\times (-8)}{2+5}, \frac{2\times 19+5\times (-2)}{2+5}\right)

$P(x, y)=\left(\frac{12-40}{7}, \frac{38-10}{7}\right)

$P(x, y)=\left(\frac{-28}{7}, \frac{28}{7}\right)

P(x, y) = (–4, 4)

Hence the point P(–4, 4) that is \frac{2}{5} of the way from A to B on the directed line segment AB.

Answer:
5x⁴ + 5x³

Explanation:
We are given that:
f (x) = 5x³
g (x) = x + 1

Now, (f · g)(x) means that we will simply multiply the two functions as follows:
(f · g)(x) = f (x) · g (x)
(f · g)(x) = 5x³ (x + 1)
(f · g)(x) = 5x⁴ + 5x³

Hope this helps :)

Find the equation of a line with each of the following characteristics. a) parallel to the line y = 3x + 5 and has a y-intercept
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

y = 1/2x - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

When you put all three equations from the question into a graph and then input the equation i just gave you it will be perpendicular to line B & C, also it will be parallel to line A. Finally you can check yourself that it also has a y-intercept of (0,-1) & an x-intercept of (2,0). Hopefully this helps out & gets brainliest. xD
