What are the coordinates of the point on the directedline segment from K(-5,-4) to L(5,1) that partitionsthe segment into a rati

Diano4ka-milaya [45]

You can solve this either just plain algebra or with the use of trigonometry.
In this case, we'll just use algebra.

So, if we let M be the the point that partitions the segment into a ratio of 3:2, we have this relation:
KM/ML = 3/2
KM = 1.5 ML

We also have this:
KL = KM + ML
Substituting KM,
KL = (3/2) ML + ML
KL = 2.5 ML

Using the distance formula and the given coordinates of the K and L, we get the length of KL
KL = sqrt ( (5-(-5)^2 + (1-(-4))^2 ) = 5 sqrt(5)

Since,
KL = 2.5 ML

Substituting KL,
ML = (1/2.5) KL = (1/2.5) 5 sqrt(5) = 2 sqrt(5)

Using again the distance formula from M to L and letting (x,y) as the coordinates of the point M
ML = 2 sqrt(5) = sqrt ( (5-x)^2 + (1-y)^2 ) [let this be equation 1]

In order to solve this, we need to find an expression of y in terms of x. We can use the equation of the line KL.
The slope m is:
m = (1-(-4))/(5-(-5) = 0.5

Using the general form of the linear equation:
y = mx +b
We substitue m and the coordinate of K or L. We'll just use K.
-5 = (0.5)(-4) + b
b = -1.5

So equation of the line is
y = 0.5x - 1.5 [let this be equation 2]

Substitute equation 2 to equation 1 and solving for x, we get 2 values of x,
x=1, x=9

Since 9 does not make sense (it does not lie on the line), we choose x=1.
Using the equation of the line, we get y which is -1.

So, we get the coordinates of point M which is (1,-1)

Write an equation in slope-intercept form for a line that passes through the point (1, 6) and

Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

y=2x+4

Step-by-step explanation:

If the line has a slope of two, that means it goes up 2 on the y axis for every 1 on the x axis. So, if it goes through (1,6), then you can subtract 1 from the x axis and two from the y axis to find the y intercept, (0,4).

A livestock company reports that the mean weight of a group of young steers is 1143 pounds with a standard deviation of 88 pound

malfutka [58]

Answer:

a) P(x<1200)=74.14%

b) P(1100<X<1250)=57.54%

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Distribution

The normal distribution, also known as the bell curve, is a distribution that occurs naturally in many situations of life. We use the model $N(\mu,\sigma)$ to understand the behavior of some real-life variables. Where $\mu$ is the mean value and $\sigma$ is the standard deviation.

In our case, we have

$\mu=1143,\ \sigma=88$

And are required to find the percentage of steers whose weigh lie within a given range. We must use some sort of table or digital means to compute the values because the normal distribution cannot be calculated directly by a formula. We use the NORMDIST (or NORM.DIST) formula for Excel which gives us the left tail of the area behind the bell curve, i.e. the cumulative percentage for a give value of X. The formula has the form

NORM.DIST(x,mean,standard_dev,cumulative)

a) X<1200

The formula is used with the following parameters

NORM.DIST(1200,1143,88,true)

and we get

$P(X$

b) We need to compute P(1100<X<1250). To do this, we calculate both left tails and the subtract them

NORM.DIST(1100,1143,88,true)=0.3125

NORM.DIST(1250,1143,88,true)=0.8880

$P(1100$

$\boxed{P(1100$
