IRINA_888 [86]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

4 / 5

Step-by-step explanation:

From the image attached, Line BA is divided into a total of 5 equal proportions (or intervals). Point P is placed at the 4th proportion of the divided line, also the distance between point P and point A is 1 propotion. The ratio in which point P divides the line BA is given as:

Ratio = BP : PA = 4 : 1

Ratio = 4 : 1

The part to whole ratio If point p partitions line BA = BP / BA = 4 / 5

Part to whole ratio = 4/5

Mac is 5 feet tall and casts a 4 foot 6 inch shadow. At the same time, a nearby tree casts a 20
Sergio [31]

I will convert feet to inches.

4 feet, 6 inches = 54 inches

20 feet = 240 inches

5/x = 54/240

Let x = closest height of tree

54x = 5(240)

54x = 1,200

x = 1200/54

x = 22.2222222222

The tree is about 22 feet tall.

Consider m = y2 - y1/ x2 - x1 . Which x1 and x2-values would determine that the line is vertical? Justify your answer
Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer:

x_2=x_1

Step-by-step explanation:

We were given the slope formula;

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

This line is vertical if the denominator is zero.

That is when x_2-x-1=0

This implies that;

x_2=x_1

Justification;

When x_2=x_1, then, the line passes through;

(x_1,y_1)  and (x_1,y_2)

The slope now become

m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_1-x_1}=\frac{y_2-y_1}{0}

The equation of the line is

y-y_1=\frac{y_2-y_1}{0}(x-x_1)

This implies that;

0(y-y_1)=(y_2-y_1)(x-x_1)

0=(y_2-y_1)(x-x_1)

\frac{0}{y_2-y_1}=(x-x_1)

0=(x-x_1)

x=x_1... This is the equation of a vertical line.
