Answer:

The coordinates of the point P is 14.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let point A is at 8 and B is at 16.

P is the point where the line segment in the ratio 3 : 1.

This is also where P is \frac{3}{4} rds the distance from A to B

The total distance is |16 - 8| = 8  

The distance between point AB is 8 units.

\frac{3}{4} of 8 is 6.

So, the point P is 6 units from A .

8 + 6 = 14

P is at 14

Hence, the coordinates of the point P is 14.

This also works if you go 1/3 from B.

-8 is 4 from -4 which is 1/3 of 12.

Answer:

mary=10 jack=15

Step-by-step explanation:

After 4 years Mary (x+4), Jack's age (x+5) + 4.

sum of the ages after 4 years :(x+4) + (x+5) +4=33 

Simplifying the equation:

2x+13 = 33 ----->> 2x=20----->>>>x = 10 Mary's age

10 + 5 = 15 which is Jack's age.
