Answer:

p  is (3.71, 6.71)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that p is at the distance of 3/4 from A to B

it mean that point p divides the line AB into 3:4 ratio.

and

if there are two points (x1,y1) and (x2,y22) which is divided by point p in the ratio m:n then

coordinates of point p (x,y) is given

p (x = (n*x1+m*x2)/m+n , y = (n*y1+m*y2)/m+n )

________________________________________________

Given the points AB

A(2,5)

B(6,9)

m:n = 3:4

thus,

p (x = (4*2+3*6)/7 , y = (4*5+3*9)/7 )

p (x = (4*2+3*6)/7 , y = (4*5+3*9)/7 )

p (x = (26/7 , y = 47/7 )

P ( x = 3.71, y = 6.71)

Thus, coordinates of point p  is (3.71, 6.71) which is  at  3/4 of the distance from A to B for A(2,5) and B(6,9)/

Help with my math test please
Setler79 [48]

Answer:

The graph shows the proportional relationship between total spent and number of months

A proportional relationship has the following characteristics

In a proportional relationship, the ratio of the 'x' and 'y' values is constant for all data pairs

The rate of change between the two quantities in a proportional relationship is constant

The graph of a directly proportional relationship passes through the origin

Therefore, the significance of the given points are;

1. The point (1, 5) is the first point that indicates the proportional relationship between the 'x' and 'y' values and from which the the constant of proportionality, k = y/x can be found as follows;

When x = 1 month, and y = $ 5, for the proportional relationship, we have;

k = y/x = $ 5/(1 month) = 5 $/month

2. The point (0, 0) is the starting point of the relationship and indicates that the graph of the 'x', and 'y', values passes through the origin and the relationship between the ;x;, and ;y;, values is a directly proportional relationship

3. The point (4, 20) which is the limiting point or the point with the highest 'y' value gives;

1) The total payment after 5 months

2) it can be used to draw the graph of the straight line relationship

3) Provides verification of the constant of proportionality

A person is purchasing a new golf club bag. The compartment for the golf balls is approximately the shape of a rectangular prism
Lerok [7]

Answer:

The answer to your question is: ≈ 178 balls

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

rectangular prism = 8 in x 11 in x 5 in

golf balls = 1.68 in diameter

Formula

Volume rectangular prism = l x w x h = 8 x 11 x 5 = 440 in³

Volume of ball = (4/3) πr³ = (4/3) (3.1416) (0.84)³ = 2.48 in³

# of balls inside the compartment = volume rectangular prism / volume ball

# of balls = 440 / 2.48

               = 177.4 ≈ 178 balls
