All you needed to do was plug in 5 into C
I pretty sure your answer is c I may be wrong.
Answer:
debit
Step-by-step explanation:
The answer should be the directrix because k represents the y-value of the vertex, and for this questions the parabola is probably facing upward, so the directrix is under the vertex.
We have the coordinates
J (2,5)
K (4,19)
Since we are to find the point that partitions the line segment into 3:2 ratio, we have 5 equal parts of the line segment. So,
Get the horizontal distance:
4 - 2 = 2
Divide by 5
2/5
Multiply by 3
2/5 x 3 = 1.2
Add this to the x coordinate of J
2 + 1.2 = 2.2
Get the vertical distance:
19 - 5 = 14
Divide by 5
14/5
Multiply by 3
14/5 x 3 = 8.4
Add this to the y coordinate of J
5 + 8.4 = 13.4
The coordinates of the point is
(2.2,13.4)
