What are the points of trisection of the segment with endpoints (0,0) and (27,27) ?
stiks02 [169]

Given:

Endpoints of a segment are (0,0) and (27,27).

To find:

The points of trisection of the segment.

Solution:

Points of trisection means 2 points between the segment which divide the segment in 3 equal parts.

First point divide the segment in 1:2 and second point divide the segment in 2:1.

Section formula: If a point divides a line segment in m:n, then

Point=\left(\dfrac{mx_2+nx_1}{m+n},\dfrac{my_2+ny_1}{m+n}\right)

Using section formula, the coordinates of first point are

Point\ 1=\left(\dfrac{1(27)+2(0)}{1+2},\dfrac{1(27)+2(0)}{1+2}\right)

Point\ 1=\left(\dfrac{27}{3},\dfrac{27}{3}\right)

Point\ 1=\left(9,9\right)

Using section formula, the coordinates of first point are

Point\ 2=\left(\dfrac{2(27)+1(0)}{2+1},\dfrac{2(27)+1(0)}{2+1}\right)

Point\ 2=\left(\dfrac{54}{3},\dfrac{54}{3}\right)

Point\ 2=\left(18,18\right)

Therefore, the points of trisection of the segment are (9,9) and (18,18).

find the slope and y intercept for the following equation by writing it in the form y=mx+b -8x+y=5 someone help please
vichka [17]

Answer:

slope = 8, y- intercept = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + b ( m is the slope and b the y- intercept )

Given

- 8x + y = 5 ( add 8x to both sides )

y = 8x + 5 ← in slope- intercept form

with slope m = 8 and y- intercept c = 5

Plz help with 9 and 10
GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

Tony can buy three games with his savings over two months and Alice can buy six concert tickets.  

Step-by-step explanation:

Over two months, Tony has watched a total of 53.6 hours of television (35.4 + 18.2).  If he save $2.50 for each hour, we can multiply his total hours by the amount per hour, or 53.6 x 2.50 = $134.00.  Since each game that Tony wants to buy costs $35.75, we need to divide his total savings by the cost of each game, or 134/35.75 = 3.75.  Since Tony can't buy a portion of the game, the most amount of games he can buy is 3.  Alice watched a total of 48.4 hours of television (21.8 + 26.6).  If she also saves $2.50 per hour, then her total savings is 2.50 x 48.4 = $121.00.  Since her concert tickets are $17.50 a piece, we divide her total savings: 121/17.50 = 6.9.  Alice can also not buy a partial ticket, so the total amount she can buy is 6.
