Answer:exact form 1295/261
Mixed number form 4 251/261
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer – Always
A negative number raised to an odd power is always negative. When a negative number is raised to an even power, the pairs of negatives will cancel out; but when it is raised to an odd power, after pairs of the negative sign have canceled each other out, there will still be one minus sign left unpaired, which will not cancel out.

Since M divides segment AB into a ratio of 5:2, we can say that M is 5/(5+2) of the length of AB. Therefore 5/7 × AB.
distance of AB = d
5/7×(x2 - x1) for the x and 5/7×(y2 - y1) for the y
5/7×(8 - 1) = 5/7 (7) = 5 for the x
and 5/7×(16 - 2) = 5/7 (14) = 10 for the y
But remember the line AB starts at A (1, 2),
so add 1 to the x: 5+1 = 6
and add 2 to the y: 10+2 = 12
Therefore the point M lies exactly at...
A) (6, 12)
B. One is the answer because the longest line that would match is through c and b.
