Answer: (0,3)

Step-by-step explanation:

You follow the formulas to find the x and y of the dividing points.

Xp= x1+ a/a+b (x2-x1)

Xp= 10+5/5+3(-6-10)

Xp=10+5/8(-16)

Solve the problem above and you end up with “0” as your x.

Yp= y1+ a/a+b (y2-y1)

Yp= -2+ 5/8 (6+2)

Yp= -2+ 5/8 (8)

Solve this problem above and you end up with “3” as your y. Therefore, the point that divides the line segment between (10, -2) and (-6,6) into a ratio of 5:3 is (0, 3).

A special deck of cards has ten cards. Four are green, three are blue, and three are red. When a card is picked, its color of it

nata0808 [166]

Answer:

P(A) = 3/20

Step-by-step explanation:

P(A)=P(blue)P(head)=(3/10)(1/2)=3/20

as there are 10 cards in total, out of which 3 are blue so the probability to get the blue card is, P(blue) = 3/10. and the probability of getting a head when a coin is tossed is P(head) = 1/2.

So in total

P(A) = P(blue)*p(head) = (3/10)*(1/2) = 3/20 = 0.15

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the equation of the graphed line.

Use 2 points, (0, -6) and (2, 4)

m = (4 + 6)/2 = 5
b = -6

The equation is:

y = 5x - 6

Compare with the given line y = 4x + 2

5 > 4 and -6 < 2

Correct answer choice is c
