It is not recommended that points be marked with X, let's marked with C(6,6)=(Xc,Yc)

The coordinates of the point C(Xc,Yc) which belongs to the line AB and divides line AB in a ratio m : n = 1 : 2 or m/n=1/2 are get it with following formula

Xc=(Xa+(m/n)Xb) / (1+(m/n)) and Yc=(Ya+(m/n)Yb) / (1+(m/n))

We have A(2,2)=(Xa,Ya) and B(14,14)=(Xb,Yb)

When we replace given coordinates we get

Xc=(2+(1/2)*14) / (1+(1/2)) = (2+7) /(3/2) = 9/(3/2) = (9*2)/3 = 3*2 =6 => Xc=6

Yc=(2+(1/2)*14) / (1+(1/2)) = (2+7) / (3/2) = 9/(3/2) = (9*2)/3 = 3*2 =6 => Yc=6

C(Xc,Yc)=(6,6)

Good luck!!!

Does(3, 6)make the inequality x + y ≤ 9 true?
maw [93]
If you would like to know if (3, 6) is a solution to the inequality x + y <= 9, you can calculate this using the following steps:

(3, 6) ... x = 3, y = 6
x + y <= 9
3 + 6 <= 9
9 <= 9

Result: (3, 6) is a solution to the inequality x + y <= 9.

Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer: You would divide the rectangle into half, to form two congruent triangles. When you multiply the area of 1 of the triangles, it gives you the area of both triangles, and so the area of the triangle as a whole
