Ratio s 3:8
other one is x:12

3:8=x:12
3/8=x/12
times both sides by 12
36/8=x
4 and 4/8=x
4.5=x
4 and 1/2=x

What are the coordinates of point B on \overline{AC} such that AB = 1/2 BC

marta [7]

Answer:

C. $B(x,y) = \left(3,-\frac{16}{3} \right)$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let $A(x,y) = (6,-7)$ , $B(x,y) = (x,y)$ and $C(x,y) = (-3,-2)$ . From statement we know that $AB = \frac{1}{2}\cdot BC$ , which is equivalent to the following linear algebraic formula:

$B(x,y) -A(x,y) = \frac{1}{2}\cdot [C(x,y)-B(x,y)]$ (1)

$B(x,y)-A(x,y) = \frac{1}{2}\cdot C(x,y)-\frac{1}{2}\cdot B(x,y)$

$\frac{3}{2}\cdot B(x,y) = \frac{1}{2}\cdot C(x,y)+A(x,y)$

$B(x,y) = \frac{1}{3}\cdot C(x,y) +\frac{2}{3}\cdot A(x,y)$ (2)

Then, the coordinates of point B on AC are:

$B(x,y) = \frac{1}{3}\cdot (-3,-2)+\frac{2}{3}\cdot (6,-7)$

$B(x,y) = \left(-1, -\frac{2}{3}\right)+\left(4, -\frac{14}{3} \right)$

$B(x,y) = \left(3,-\frac{16}{3} \right)$

Which means that correct answer is C.
