X = 2y
2x + 2y = 24
So if x = 2y that means 2x = 4y. Which means that 2x + 2y = 24 can be written as 4y + 2y = 24. Simplified to 6y = 24. Now we need to get 1y so we divide both sides by 6, 6y/6 = y and 24/6 = 4. so y = 4. so x= 2y can be written as x = 8.

Write a slope intercept equation for a line passing through the point (4,-2) that is parallel to the line 4x+5y=7. Then write a
LuckyWell [14K]

First, the equation needs to be put into slope-intercept form, which is y = -4/5x + 7/5. Then, you need to know what parallel and perpendicular lines are. REMEBER, parallel lines have the same slope, and perpendicular lines have slopes whose product equal -1. You just need to substitute. For the parallel line, -2 = -4/5(4) + b, and b = 6/5, so y = -4/5x + 6/5. For the perpendicular line, the slope is 5/4. Now substitute. -2 = 5/4(4) + b, and b = -7, so y = 5/4x -7.

Find the coordinates of point P on →AB that partitions the segment into the given ratio AP to PB .
marysya [2.9K]

The line segment AB is divided at point P, which has coordinates P(0,-7.5)

A line segment is a section of a line that connects two locations to create a straight line or we can say that is connects two distinct points together to form a single line. It is extendable to either side.

Given are,

A line segment AB with coordinates of A(0,0 ) and B(-15,0) respectively

Two minor line segments, AP and PB, are created from the line segment AB by the provided point P

We must determine the dividing point's coordinates, or P.

We'll apply the formula provided,

The coordinates of the point P are given by  = (\frac{x1+x2}{2},\frac{y1+y2}{2} )

Now, x1 = 0, x2 = 0, y1 = -15, y2 = 0

Putting values in the formula, we get

(\frac{0+0}{2}, \frac{0-15}{2})

(0,-7.5)

Hence, the point P which partitions the line segment AB have coordinates as P(0,-7.5)
