Answer:

P ( -1, -3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given ratio is AP : PB = 3 : 2 = m : n  and points A(5,6) B(-5,-9)

We will calculate coordinates of the point P which divides line segment AB

in the following way:

xp = (n · xa + m · xb) / (m+n) = (2 · 5 + 3 · (-5)) / (3+2) = (10-15) / 5 = -5/5 = -1

xp = -1

yp = (n · ya + m · yb) / (m+n) = (2 · 6 + 3 · (-9)) / (3+2) = (12-27) / 5 = -15/5 = -3

yp = -3

Point P( -1, -3)

God with you!!!

The dot plot displays the number of bushes in the yards for houses in a neighborhood. What is the median?
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

Median = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Data set representing the number of bushes in the yards of the houses in the neighborhood will be,

{5, 5, 6, 6, 6, 7, 7, 7, 7, 8, 8, 8, 9, 9, 10, 11, 11, 11, 11, 11}

Total number of houses = 20

Since, 20 is an even number,

Median of the data = average of middle two term

                                = average of 20th term and 21st term of the data set

                                = \frac{8+8}{2}

                                = 8

Median of the data set = 8
