We have been given two points.
and
. We are asked to find the point B such that it divides line segment AC so that the ratio of AB to BC is 4:1.
We will use segment formula to solve our given problem.
When a point P divides segment any segment internally in the ratio
, then coordinates of point P are:
![[\right x=\frac{mx_2+nx_1}{m+n},y=\frac{my_2+ny_1}{m+n}\left]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5B%5Cright%20x%3D%5Cfrac%7Bmx_2%2Bnx_1%7D%7Bm%2Bn%7D%2Cy%3D%5Cfrac%7Bmy_2%2Bny_1%7D%7Bm%2Bn%7D%5Cleft%5D)
and
.

Upon substituting our given information in above formula, we will get:
![[\right x=\frac{4(3)+1(3)}{4+1},y=\frac{4(9)+1(4)}{4+1}\left]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5B%5Cright%20x%3D%5Cfrac%7B4%283%29%2B1%283%29%7D%7B4%2B1%7D%2Cy%3D%5Cfrac%7B4%289%29%2B1%284%29%7D%7B4%2B1%7D%5Cleft%5D)
![[\right x=\frac{12+3}{5},y=\frac{36+4}{5}\left]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5B%5Cright%20x%3D%5Cfrac%7B12%2B3%7D%7B5%7D%2Cy%3D%5Cfrac%7B36%2B4%7D%7B5%7D%5Cleft%5D)
![[\right x=\frac{15}{5},y=\frac{40}{5}\left]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5B%5Cright%20x%3D%5Cfrac%7B15%7D%7B5%7D%2Cy%3D%5Cfrac%7B40%7D%7B5%7D%5Cleft%5D)
![[\right x=3,y=8\left]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5B%5Cright%20x%3D3%2Cy%3D8%5Cleft%5D)
Therefore, the coordinates of point B would be
.

Answer:
14
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the formula with n=3.
h(3) = h(3-2) +h(3-1)
h(3) = h(1) +h(2)
h(3) = -6 +20 . . . . . substitute the given values
h(3) = 14
Answer:
length = 20 ft, width = 11 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
let w be width, then length = w + 9
The opposite sides of a rectangle are equal , then
2w + 2(w + 9) = 62
2w + 2w + 18 = 62
4w + 18 = 62 ( subtract 18 from both sides )
4w = 44 ( divide both sides by 4 )
w = 11
and w + 9 = 11 + 9 = 20
then width = 11 ft and length = 20 ft
I think that it would be C, but I am debating on C and D. I'm pretty confident that it's C, though. Pretty sure.
