Answer:

(6;3.33)

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the coordinates of the point that partitions in a 1:3 ratio, we use:

x=x_{1}+k(x_{2}-x_{1})\\y=y_{1}+k(y_{2}-y_{1})

Where k is the ration of partitions, \frac{1}{3} in this case.

Now, we replace all values:

x=x_{1}+k(x_{2}-x_{1})\\x=5+\frac{1}{3}(8-5)=5+\frac{1}{3}3=6

<em>So, the horizontal coordinate is 6.</em>

y=y_{1}+k(y_{2}-y_{1})\\y=6+\frac{1}{3}(-2-6)=6+\frac{1}{3}(-8)=3.33

<em>The vertical coordinate is 3.33.</em>

<em />

Therefore, the coordinates of the point that partitions the directed line segment AB in a 1:3 ratio is (6;3.33)

Answer:

(6, 3 1/3)

Step-by-step explanation: Split this problem into x and y parts. In x direction, the length of the AB is (8-5)=3. So 1/3 from A would be 5+1/3(8-5)=6

In y, AB goes from 6 to -2, so the coordinate changes by (-2-6)=-8 units.

1/3 along this ling will be 6 + 1/3 (-2-6)=6-2 2/3=3 1/3

Answer:

The mathematical expectation of a student who purchases 10 tickets is -$39.65.

Step-by-step explanation:

A student that purchases 10 tickets out of 2900 has a probability of winning the cruise that can be calculated as:

p=10/2900\approx0.00345

Each ticket cost $5, so he has spent $50 for the 10 tickets.

Then, the expected value of this operation is equal to the expected value of the earnings (probability of winning the prize multiplied by the value of the prize), minus the costs:

E(X)=p\cdot R-C\\\\E(X)=0.00345\cdot3000-50=10.35-50=-39.65

The mathematical expectation of a student who purchases 10 tickets is -$39.65.

Answer: 0.8 or 80% (either way is correct)

Explanations 80/100 equals 80 divided by 100 which equals 0.8 ; 0.8 equals 80%

(Hope this helps!)
