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).

PART A:

The table of h(t) and g(t) for the value of x between 4 and 7 inclusive are shown below.

The solution for h(x)=g(x) lies between x = 4 and x = 5, this is becuase the range of value given by h(4) and h(5) and g(4) and g(5).

The graph is shown in picture 2 to confirm this. The two functions intersect each other between x = 4 and x = 5

PART B:

The point of intersection is the point where the cannon balls will collide.

Pentagon CDEFG is shown on the coordinate plane. Pentagon CDEFG is translated 7 units up and 5 units left, resulting in C'D'E'F'

Sati [7]

Answer:

The length of line segment FG is equal to the length of F'G'

The perimeter of pentagon CDEFG is equal to the perimeter of pentagon C'D'E'F'G.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

CDEFG and C'D'E'F'G

Translation: 7 units up and 5 units left

Solving (a): Segment FG and F'G'

When a shape is translated, the resulting image will have the same lengths as the original image (i.e, translation does not change measurements)

Hence:

$FG = F'G'$

Solving (b): Perimeter CDEFG and C'D'EF'G'

In (a), we established that lengths do not change during translation;

Hence:

The perimeter of the CDEFG and C'D'EF'G' will remain the same
