Line segment AB has endpoints A(6, 1) and B(3, 8). Find the coordinates of the point that divides the line segment directed from
A to B in the ratio of 2:3.
A) 2 5 , 22 5
B) 34 5 , 9 5
C) 19 5 , 24 5
D) 24 5 , 19 5

The answer is D, i know i just took this
Ratio = 2:3 = 2/5
Distance between the x coordinates: 3
Distance between the y coordinates: 7
x: 3 * 2/5 = 1.2
y: 7 * 2/5 = 2.8
x coordinate of point: 6 - 1.2 = 4.8
y coordinate of point: 1 + 2.8 = 3.8
So the point that divides the segment AB in the ratio of 2:3 is (4.8 , 3.8) or (24/5 , 19/5)
Hope this helps :)

30/150 = 80/x
Reduce the fraction:
1/5 = 80/x
Cross multiply:
x = 5 x 80
x= 400

If 90% of bodies are water weight, then we have 10% left.
76+10% = 83.6.
83.6 total.
Answer:
y=x-2
a. 3=x-2
b. this isn't wrong??
c. 3=x-2
d. add 2 to both side so taht x is on its own so 5=x
e. yes
