Answer:

2.2

Step-by-step explanation:

If  point P (Xp, Yp) divides a line segment from J (Xj, Yj) to K (Xk, Yk) in the ratio a:b, then the y-coordinate of P is

Yp = Yj + a/(a+b) * (Yk - Yj)

Here Yj = 1, Yk = 5, a = 3 and b = 7. Replacing

Yp = 1 + 3/(3+7) * (5 - 1)

Yp = 2.2

Pleaseeee help! I'm really confused.
seropon [69]
He will be making a right triangle with the legs being 24 x 45. The diagonal will be the hypotenuse of the triangle. To find the amount of fencing we need the perimeter of the triangle.
Use Pythagorean theorem to find the length of the hypotenuse.
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
24^2 + 45^2 = c^2
576 + 2025 = c^2
2601 = c^2
sqrt 2601 = c
c = 51
Adding the three lengths the total fencing needed is
51+24+45=120 meters

A map has a scale of 1m represents 2 km. write this scale as a ratio in its simplest form
Lisa [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find yourself a map. Then, using two points, find both the distance on the map and the true distance. Next, you divide the true distance by the measured map distance, and find your scale. Last, you need to place that ratio onto your map.

How many diagonals can be constructed from one vertex of an n-gon? State your answer in terms of n and, of course, justify your
Rasek [7]

Polygon Diagonals. The number of diagonals in a polygon = n(n-3)/2, where n is the number of polygon sides. For a convex n-sided polygon, there are n vertices, and from each vertex you can draw n-3 diagonals, so the total number of diagonals that can be drawn is n(n-3).
