<span>Given the diagram, where AB and EF are horizontal lines and CB is a vertical line segment. Given that FB : FC = 4 : 3, From the diagram, the coordinate of A is (-10, -8) and the coordinate of C is (-3. -1). We can also see that the coordinate of B is (-3, -8) (since CB is a vertical line means that B is the same x-value as C and AB is a horizontal line means that B is the same y-value as A) Recall that the coordinate of a point dividing a line segment in the ratio m:n is given by (x1 + m/(m+n) (x2 - x1), y1 + m/(m+n) (y2 - y1)) Thus, since FB : FC = 4 : 3, this means that point F divides the line segment BC in the ratio 4 : 3. Thus, the coordinate of F is given by (-3 + 4/(4+3) (-3 - (-3)), -8 + 4/(4+3) (-1 - (-8))) = (-3 + 4/7 (0), -8 + 4/7 (7)) = (-3, -4). Also, given that FB : FC = 4 : 3, this means that point D divides the line segment AC in the ratio 4 : 3. Thus, the coordinate of D is given by (-10 + 4/(4+3) (-3 - (-10)), -8 + 4/(4+3) (-1 - (-8))) = (-10 + 4/7 (7), -8 + 4/7 (7)) = (-6, -4). Therefore, the coordinates of point D is (-6, -4).</span>

If y varies directly as the x^2 and y = 200 when x = 5, what is the value of y when x = -3?
gayaneshka [121]
As the variation is direct we have:
 y = kx ^ 2&#10;
 We must find the value of k.
 For this, we use the following data:
 y = 200 when x = 5
 Substituting values we have:
 200 = k5 ^ 2&#10;
 Clearing k:
 k = 200/5 ^ 2&#10;&#10;k = 200/25&#10;&#10;k = 8
 Then, the function is:
 y = 8x ^ 2&#10;
 We evaluate the function for x = -3
 y = 8 (-3) ^ 2&#10;&#10;y = 8 (9)&#10;&#10;y = 72
 Answer:
 the value of y when x = -3 is:
 c.

I dont understand the question
Nonamiya [84]
<h3>Answer: Choice C)   x^4 - 2</h3>

Explanation:

If the exponent is negative, then that means we apply the reciprocal. So something like x^(-2) becomes 1/(x^2). A polynomial cannot have a variable in the denominator like this. So we can rule out choices A, B, and D. Choice C is the only thing left. It is a polynomial because the exponent is a positive whole number.
