Another way to write this is:
x = 23y + 5
xy = 6732

Now plug in the first equation into the second:
(23y + 5)y = 6732
23y^2 + 5y - 6732 = 0

Either use quadratic equation or factor:
(y - 17)(23y + 396) = 0
y = 17 or -396/23

You know you can automatically eliminate the second y because it's negative and you need the two integers to multiply to a positive number (6732).

Plug y = 17 back into either equation (second might be easier):
17x = 6732
x = 396

Given the points A(-3, -2) and B(6, 1), determine the coordinates of point P on directed line segment that partitions in the rat
serg [7]

Answer:

P = (3,0)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

A = (-3,-2) ---- (x_1,y_1)

B = (6,1) --- (x_2,y_2)

m:n =2:1

Required

The coordinates of P

This is calculated as:

P = (\frac{mx_2+nx_1}{m+n},\frac{my_2+ny_1}{m+n}]

So:

P = (\frac{2*6+1*-3}{2+1},\frac{2*1+1*-2}{2+1})

P = (\frac{9}{3},\frac{0}{3})

P = (3,0)

What is -1 ⅓ × -⅖<br><br>Please explain your answer and show your work.​
lakkis [162]

Answer:

\frac{8}{15}

Step-by-step explanation:

  1. Change the mixed number into an improper fraction: -1 × 3 = -3, -3 + 1 = -2. Put -2 over 3: \frac{-2}{3}  
  2. Multiply -2/3 and -2/5: \frac{-2}{3} × -\frac{2}{5} = \frac{8}{15}  

Therefore, the answer is \frac{8}{15}.
