We have that
A(-2,-4)  B(8,1) <span>

let
M-------> </span><span>the coordinate that divides the directed line segment from A to B in the ratio of 2 to 3

we know that

A--------------M----------------------B
        2                     3
distance AM is equal to (2/5) AB
</span>distance MB is equal to (3/5) AB
<span>so

step 1
find the x coordinate of point M
Mx=Ax+(2/5)*dABx
where
Mx is the x coordinate of point M
Ax is the x coordinate of point A
dABx is the distance AB in the x coordinate
Ax=-2
dABx=(8+2)=10
</span>Mx=-2+(2/5)*10-----> Mx=2

step 2
find the y coordinate of point M
My=Ay+(2/5)*dABy
where
My is the y coordinate of point M
Ay is the y coordinate of point A
dABy is the distance AB in the y coordinate
Ay=-4
dABy=(1+4)=5
Mx=-4+(2/5)*5-----> My=-2

the coordinates of point M is (2,-2)

see the attached figure

One uranium atom has a mass of 3.95 x 10^-22 grams.
creativ13 [48]
Remember
(ab)/(cd)=(a/c)(b/d)
and
\frac{x^n}{x^m}=x^{n-m}

1kg=1000g=1*10^3g
hmm, I estimate, 4 of them

x=number of attoms
mass of 1 times x=1*10^3
3.95*10^-22 times x=1*10^3
divide both sides by 3.95*10^-22
x=\frac{1*10^3}{3.95*10^{-22}}= (\frac{1}{3.95}  )( \frac{10^{3}}{10^{-22}} )=0.25316*10^{25}=2.5316*10^{24}
a million has 9 zeroes
so 24 zeroes is alot that is a <span>septillion, so there are 2.5316 septillion uranium atoms in 1kg


a. 4
b. underestimate

The concentration of a drug in the bloodstream C(t) at any time t, in hours, is described by the equationC(t)=100t/t^2+25where t
alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

It will take 5 hours until it reaches its maximum concentration.

Step-by-step explanation:

The maximum concentration will happen in t hours. t is found when

C'(t) = 0

In this problem

C(t) = \frac{100t}{t^{2} + 25}

Applying the quotient derivative formula

C'(t) = \frac{(100t)'(t^{2} + 25) - (t^{2} + 25)'(100t)}{(t^{2} + 25)^{2}}

C'(t) = \frac{100t^{2} + 2500 - 200t^{2}}{(t^{2} + 25)^{2}}

C'(t) = \frac{-100t^{2} + 2500}{(t^{2} + 25)^{2}}

A fraction is equal to zero when the numerator is 0. So

-100t^{2} + 2500 = 0

100t^{2} = 2500

t^{2} = 25

t = \pm \sqrt{25}

t = \pm 5

We use only positive value.

It will take 5 hours until it reaches its maximum concentration.

What’s a number that multiplies to four but adds to three
d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

The answer is clearly 4 and 1. If we change the sign on 1 (making it -1), then you have the answer to your original question. 4 and -1 multiply to -4 and add up to 3.
