What point divides the line segment between (10,-2) and (-6,6) into a ratio of 5:3

Mathematics
1 answer:
olganol [36]3 years ago
3 0

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).

4.. Please help. Is DE←→ perpendicular to FG←→? Why or why not?
olya-2409 [2.1K]

Given:

DE contains the points D(1, -2) and E(3, 4).

FG contains the points F(-1, 2) and G(4, 0).

To find:

Is DE perpendicular to FG.

Solution:

Slope of DE:

$m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

Here x_1=1, y_1=-2, x_2=3, y_2=4

$m=\frac{4-(-2)}{3-1}

$m=\frac{6}{2}

m = 3

Slope of FG:

$m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

Here x_1=-1, y_1=2, x_2=4, y_2=0

$m=\frac{0-2}{4-(-1)}

$m=\frac{-2}{4+1}

$m=\frac{-2}{5}

<em>Two lines are perpendicular if product their slopes are -1.</em>

Slope of DE × Slope of FG

         $=3\times \frac{-2}{5}

         $= \frac{-6}{5}

         ≠ -1

The solution is no, because the product of the slopes is not -1.

WILL mark BRAINLIEST <br> WHICH OF THE FOLLOWING COULD BE THE EQUATION OF THE FUNCTION BELOW?
AysviL [449]

Answer:

y = 0.5cos(4(x+π/2)) -2

Step-by-step explanation:

The centerline of the oscillation is at -2, so only the 2nd and 4th choices are viable.

The multiplier of x is computed from (2π)/period. One period is π/2, so the multiplier of x is ...

... 2π/(π/2) = 4 . . . . . matching the 2nd selection.

The horizontal offset in the second equation (π/2) is of no consequence, as it is one full period of the function.

The peak-to-peak amplitude of the oscillation is 1 unit, so the multiplier of the cosine function (which usually has a peak-to-peak value of 2 units) is 0.5. Every offered answer has that characteristic.

The appropriate choice is the 2nd one:

... y = 0.5cos(4(x+π/2)) -2

Chicken eggs can be categorized as large if they weigh at least 2 ounces. Clare weighs 48 large eggs and finds that they have a
oee [108]

Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Large eggs : ≥2 ounces

Mean of 48 large eggs = 2.1 ounces

Mean absolute deviation = 0.08 ounces

0.08 ounces here is the mean absolute deviation of the 48 large eggs weighed, meaning that:

The average of the sum of the absolute differences in each individual egg and the mean value of all eggs weighed is 0.08.

This means that the average difference, variability or deviation in the weight of large eggs weighed is 0.08 ounces around the mean value of all eggs weighed.

Mean Absolute Deviation (MAD) :

Σ|xi - mean| / n

xi = each individual value

n = number of values
