Find the point B on AC such that the ratio of AB to BC is 2:3

Mathematics
1 answer:
Virty [35]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

B(4, - 3 )

Step-by-step explanation:

We have A(2, - 7) and C(7, 3 )

Using the section formula to calculate the coordinates of B

x_{B} = \frac{3(2)+2(7)}{2+3} = \frac{6+14}{5} = \frac{20}{5} = 4

y_{B} = \frac{3(-7)+2(3)}{2+3} = \frac{-21+6}{5} = \frac{-15}{5} = - 3

Hence B(4, - 3 )

QUESTION 1) Line M passes through the points (-4, -11) and (3, 3). Line N passes through the points (5, -2) and (-6, 9). Which o
7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

Yes, lines M and N intersect because their slopes are different.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we can start out by finding the slope of Line M and Line N. The slope formula is (y_2 - y_1)/(x_ 2- x_1)

Slope of Line M:

(3--11) / (3--4)

(3+11) / (3+4)

14/7

2

Now we know that the slope of Line M is 2.

Slope of Line N:

(9--2) / (-6-5)

11/-11

The slope of Line N is -1!

Since the slopes of Line N and M are different, they intersect. The answer is Yes, lines M and N intersect because their slopes are different.

If the slopes were the same, Line N and M would NEVER intersect because they are parallel.

Hope this helps

one positive integer is 2 less than another. The product of the two integers is 24. what are the two integers?
irinina [24]

If one is positive we can conclude that the other is also positive

Positive*positive=positive(24)

The product of the two numbers is 24

And the smaller number is less than the greater number by 2

Factors of 24=1*24,2*12,3*8,4*6.

The only pair with the diffrence of two is 4*6

Therefore the two integers are 4 and 6

What is the volume of the pyramid ? 8ft 7ft 7ft
Nuetrik [128]

Answer:

V= 392 ft^3

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the volume V of a pyramid is one-third the area of the base B times the height h.

If h= 8ft and areabase = 7ft x 7ft = 49 ft^2.

Then, the Volume V is:

V = areabase x height = 49 ft^2 x 8ft = 392 ft^3

So the solution is option D.
