Answer:

\large\boxed{x=4,\ y=-\dfrac{1}{4}}

Step-by-step explanation:

\underline{+\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}\dfrac{1}{4}x+1\dfrac{1}{2}y=\dfrac{5}{8}\\\\\dfrac{3}{4}x-1\dfrac{1}{2}y=3\dfrac{3}{8}\end{array}\right}\qquad\text{add both sides of the equations}\\.\qquad\dfrac{4}{4}x=3\dfrac{8}{8}\\\\.\qquad\boxed{x=4}\\\\\text{put the value of x to the first equation:}\\\\\dfrac{1}{4}(4)+1\dfrac{1}{2}y=\dfrac{5}{8}\\\\1+1\dfrac{1}{2}y=\dfrac{5}{8}\qquad\text{subtract}\ 1=\dfrac{8}{8}\ \text{from obth sides}\\\\1\dfrac{1}{2}y=-\dfrac{3}{8}\qquad\text{multiply both sides by 2}\\\\3y=-\dfrac{3}{4}\qquad\text{divide both sides by 3}\\\\\boxed{y=-\dfrac{1}{4}}

Oordinates of point that divides the join of A (-6, 3) &amp; B (5, -2) in ratio 2 : 3 externally _________.
DedPeter [7]

Answer:

C(x,y) = (-28,13)

Step-by-step explanation:

If co-ordinates of points A(x1,y1) and (x2,y2) and C is the external point that divides the line AB in ratio m:n then,

C (x,y) = \frac{mx_2-nx_1}{m-n} , \frac{my_2-ny_1}{m-n}

Given: A (-6, 3) & B (5, -2) in ratio 2 : 3

Substituting these values in above formula to C(x,y)

C (x,y) = \frac{2\times5-3(-6)}{2-3} , \frac{2(-2)-3(3)}{2-3}

Solving we get

C(x,y) = (-28,13)
