We have two unknowns: x and y. Now, we have to formulate 2 equations. The first would come from the use of the given ratio:
We use the distance formula to find the distance between coordinates:
3/4 = √[(x-4)²+(y-1)²] / √[(4-12)²+(1-5)²]
√[(x-4)²+(y-1)²] = 3√5
(x-4)²+(y-1)² = 45
x² - 8x + 16 + y² - 2y + 1 = 45
x² - 8x + y² - 2y = 28 --> eqn 1
The second equation must come from the equation of a line:
y = mx +b
m = (5-1)/(12-4) = 1/2
Substitute y=5 and x=12 for point (12,5)
5 = (1/2)(12) + b
b = -1
So, the second equation is
y = 1/2x -1 or x = 2 + 2y --> eqn 2
Solving the equations simultaneously:
(2 + 2y)² - 8(2 + 2y) + y² - 2y = 28
Solving for y,
y = -2
x = 2+2(-2) = -2
Therefore, the coordinates of point A is (-2,-2).
Hope the answer helps you!!!

Answer:
9+x<12
Step-by-step explanation:
add 9 to an unknown number.
9+x
use the < less than symbol (instead of an equal sign) and write 12.
Answer:
27.31
Step-by-step explanation:
Take the number of miles and multiply by the reimbursement rate
210.1 * .13
27.313
Round to the nearest cent
27.31
The total is 94 units.
A square has four equal sides so...
(5x-1)+(4x+3)+(5x-1)+(4x+3)=94
Combine like terms
19x+4=94
Subtract 4 from both sides
94-4=90
18x=90
Divide by 18 on both sides
90/18=5
X=5
Plug 5 in for x on the length of PQ
4(5)+3
20+3=23
Length of PQ=23 units
