16 - 12 = 4 flowers
4f = 6 days
1 flower = 1.5 days
1.5 × 16 = 24 days
Have a good day!

Line segment AB has endpoints A(1,8) and B(7,−4). What are the coordinates of the point located 5/6 of the way from A to B?

const2013 [10]

The coordinate of the point is (6,-2)

<h3>How to determine the coordinate of the point?</h3>

The given parameters are:

A = (1,8)

B = (7,-4)

The location of the point (i.e 5/6) means that the ratio is:

m :n = 5 : (6 - 5)

m : n = 5 : 1

The coordinate of the point is then calculated as:

$(x,y) = \frac{1}{m + n}* (mx_2 + nx_1,my_2 + ny_1)$

So, we have:

$(x,y) = \frac{1}{5 + 1}* (5 * 7 + 1 * 1 , 5 * -4 + 1 * 8)$

Evaluate

$(x,y) = \frac{1}{6}* (36 , -12)$

Evaluate the product

(x,y) = (6,-2)

Hence, the coordinate of the point is (6,-2)

Two boats leave the same place at the same time. The first boat heads due north at 10 kilometers per hour. The second boat heads

Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

18.87 km/hr

Step-by-step explanation:

First boat is heading North with a speed of 10 km/hr.

Second boat is heading West with a speed of 16 km/hr.

Time for which they move = 2.5 hours

To find:

The speed at which the distance is increasing between the two boats.

Solution:

Let the situation be represented by the attached diagram.

Their initial position is represented by point O from where they move towards point A and point B respectively.

$Distance = Speed \times Time$

$Distance\ OA = 10 \times 2.5 = 25\ km$

$Distance\ OB = 16 \times 2.5 = 40\ km$

We can use Pythagorean Theorem to find the distance AB.

AB is the hypotenuse of the right angled $\triangle AOB$ .

According to Pythagorean theorem:

$\text{Hypotenuse}^{2} = \text{Base}^{2} + \text{Perpendicular}^{2}\\\Rightarrow AB^{2} = OA^{2} + OB^{2}\\\Rightarrow AB^2 = 25^2 + 40^2\\\Rightarrow AB^2 = 2225^2\\\Rightarrow AB^2 \approx 47.17\ km$

The speed at which distance is increasing between the two boats is given as:

$\dfrac{47.17}{2.5} \approx 18.87\ km/hr$
