Put a picture so we can see
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
[1] 3x - 4y = -24
[2] -x - 16y = -52
Graphic Representation of the Equations :
-4y + 3x = -24 -16y - x = -52
Solve by Substitution :
// Solve equation [2] for the variable x
[2] x = -16y + 52
// Plug this in for variable x in equation [1]
[1] 3•(-16y+52) - 4y = -24
[1] - 52y = -180
// Solve equation [1] for the variable y
[1] 52y = 180
[1] y = 45/13
// By now we know this much :
x = -16y+52
y = 45/13
// Use the y value to solve for x
x = -16(45/13)+52 = -44/13
Solution :
{x,y} = {-44/13,45/13}
Since we need a point that divides K-->J into two segments in a 1:3 ratio, let's flip it to a 3:1 ratio in the J-->K direction. That means that this point is 3/(3+1) = 3/4 of the way up line JK.
Let's take 3/4 of the x of K (plus the 1 for the x of J):
3/4×(9 - 1) + 1 (because the beginning ofvthe line, at J, has an x of 1)...
3/4×(8) + 1 = 6 + 1 = 7
Therefore the answer is C) 7
