First, find the gradient/slope:
Use slope formula:
m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
=(11-5)/(3-1)
=6/2
=3
Then use the line equation formula:
y=mx+c
You can substitute (1,5) if you like, also must substitute the slope as well!
5=3x1+c
c=2
Then find the full equation, which gives you the answer:
y=3x+2

Answer:
(a) ΔWZY ~ ΔWXZ ~ ΔZXY
Step-by-step explanation:
In order for the similarity statement to be correct, the corresponding sides need to be listed in the same order.
A: ΔWZY lists sides in order short leg (WZ), long leg (ZY).
ΔWXZ lists sides in order short leg (WX), long leg (XZ).
ΔZXY lists sides in order short leg (ZX), long leg (XY).
The first similarity statement is correct.
__
You can compare this to an incorrect one, the last one, for example.
ΔYZW lists sides in order long leg (YZ), short leg (ZW).
ΔXZW lists sides in order long leg (XZ), hypotenuse (ZW). Hypotenuse and short leg are not corresponding sides, so the similarity statement is incorrect.

Answer:
P(5, 1)
Step-by-step explanation:
Segment AB is to be partitioned in a ratio of 5:3. That means the ratio of the lengths of AP to PB is 5:3. We need to find the ratio of the lengths of AP to AB.
AP/PB = 5/3
By algebra:
PB/AP = 3/5
By a rule of proportions:
(PB + AP)/AP = (3 + 5)/5
PB + AP = AP + PB = AB
AB/AP = 8/5
AP/AB = 5/8
The first part of the segment is 5/8 of the length of the segment, and the second part of the segment has length of 3/8 of the length of segment AB.
Point P is located 5/8 of the distance from point A to point B. The x-coordinate of point P is 5/8 of the difference in x-coordinates added to the x-coordinate of point A. The y-coordinate of point P is 5/8 of the difference in y-coordinates added to the y-coordinate of point A.
x-coordinate:
difference in coordinates: |14 - (-10)| = |14 + 10| = 24
5/8 of 24 = 5/8 * 24 = 15
Add 15 to the x-coordinate of point A: -10 + 15 = 5
x-coordinate of point P: 5
y-coordinate:
difference in coordinates: |4 - (-4)| = |4 + 4| = 8
5/8 of 8 = 5/8 * 8 = 5
Add 5 to the y-coordinate of point A: -4 + 5 = 1
y-coordinate of point P: 1
Answer: P(5, 1)
Answer:
they aren't the same ratio
Step-by-step explanation:
ratio of 5:10 then 9:15
5/10 and 9/15
and that is simplified
2.5/5 and 3/5 so they aren't the same ratio
