Coordinates of point C: (1,-1)
Step-by-step explanation:
In this problem, A, B and C are collinear, and B is between A and C.
The ratio AB : BC is 3 : 1.
This means that we can write the following two equations:
where:
are the coordinates of point A
are the coordinates of point B
are the coordinates of point C
Solving the equation for ,
Solving the equation for ,
So, the coordinates of point C are

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = 9x³ + 2x² - 5x + 4; g(x)=5x³ -7x + 4
Step 1. Calculate the difference between the functions
(a) Write the two functions, one above the other, in decreasing order of exponents.
ƒ(x) = 9x³ + 2x² - 5x + 4
g(x) = 5x³ - 7x + 4
(b) Create a subtraction problem using the two functions
ƒ(x) = 9x³ + 2x² - 5x + 4
-g(x) = <u>-(5x³ - 7x + 4) </u>
ƒ(x) -g(x)=
(c). Subtract terms with the same exponent of x
ƒ(x) = 9x³ + 2x² - 5x + 4
-g(x) = <u>-(5x³ - 7x + 4) </u>
ƒ(x) -g(x) = 4x³ + 2x² + 2x
Step 2. Factor the expression
y = 4x³ + 2x² + 2x
Factor 2x from each term
y = 2x(2x² + x + 1)
