J Coordinates: (-2,8)

R Coordinates: (-7,-3)

A cuts JR in the ratio of 5:2

We have to find out the coordinates for A. Let coordinates of A be (x,y)

The section formula helps us determine a point (x,y) that divides the line joining two points (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) in the ratio of m:n

x1, y1 represents the point which is more on the left side of the x axis, while x2,y2 represents the point which is more on the right side of the x axis

So here x1 = -7, y1 = -3, x2 = -2, y2 = 8, m = 5, n = 2

As per section formula, x = (mx₂ + nx₁) / (m + n), and y = (my ₂ + ny₁) / (m + n))

⇒ x = ((5*-2) + (2*-7)) / (7)

⇒ x = (-10+ (-14)) / (7)

⇒ x = -24 / 7

⇒ x = -3.43

and y = ((5*8) + (2*-3)) / (7)

⇒ y = (40 - 6) / 7

⇒ y = 4.86

So coordinates of A are (-3.43,4.86)

Write a 3-digit number that is divisible by both 3 and 4. Explain how you know this number is divisible by 3 and 4.
Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

let us assume the 3 digit number be 984

To check weather the number is divisible by 3 and 4 then when should know the divisibility rule of 3 and 4.

A number is said to be divisible by 3 when the sum of each digit of the number is divisible by 3. Example 9+8+4 = 21 is divisible by 3 hence the number is divisible by 3.

A number is said to be divisible by 4 when the last two digit is divisible by 4 like 84 is divisible by 4 hence 984 is divisible by 4.

The quotient of a number and 35 is 100. Create an equation, solve it, and then tell what that number is
kobusy [5.1K]
X/35 = 100...multiply both sides by 35
x = 100 * 35
x = 3500

Correctly order the following numbers from LEAST to GREATEST:
ivanzaharov [21]

- 7 1/5 <  - 2.3 < 0 < π  < 23/7 is ascending order of these numbers.

What do descending order and ascending order mean?

  • Climbing down the stairs of numbers starting with their highest value is another way to think of descending.
  • The slide is descended while moving down it.
  • Ascending order, in which the numbers are organized from lower value to higher value, is the reverse of falling order.

The values are 0 , -2.3 , π , 23/7 , -71/5

first simplify all the values  0 , - 2.3 , 3.14 , 3.28 , -7.2

now arrange all value in Ascending order

 - 7.2 < -2.3 < 0 < 3.14 < 3.28

- 7 1/5 <  - 2.3 < 0 < π  < 23/7
