What is 2378/2 into a mixed number

Volgvan

There no way that you can make this a mixed number unless you don't simplify all the way, which goes against the laws of math. I guess a fraction out of the answer would be 1189/1...

15 acres decreased by 80%

lawyer [7]

First, you have to find what 80% of 15 is. In order to do that you have to change 80% percent to decimal, which would be .80. Then, multiply .80 and 15 to get 12. Subtract 12 from 15 and your answer is 3.

Points A and B have coordinates (3,1,2) and (1,-5,4) respectively. Point C lies on line AB such that AC:BC=3:2. Find position ve

Sever21 [200]

Answer:

The position vector of point C is <-3 , -17 , 8> or -3i - 17j + 8k

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets revise how to solve the problem

- If the endpoints of a segment are (x1 , y1 , z1) and (x2 , y2 , z2), and

point (x , y , z) divides the segment externally at ratio m1 :m2, then

$x=\frac{m_{1}x_{2}-m_{2}x_{1}}{m_{1} -m_{2}},y=\frac{m_{1}y_{2}-m_{2}y_{1}}{m_{1}-m_{2}},z=\frac{m_{1}z_{2}-m_{2}z_{1}}{m_{1}-m_{2}}$

* Lets solve the problem

∵ AB is a segment where A = (3 , 1 , 2) and B = (1 , - 5 , 4)

∵ Point C lies on line AB such that AC : BC=3 : 2

∵ From the ratio AC = 3/2 AB

∴ C divides AB externally

- Lets use the rule above to find the coordinates of C

- Let Point A is (x1 , y1 , z1) , point B is (x2 , y2 , z2) and point C is (x , y , z)

and AC : AB is m1 : m2

∴ x1 = 3 , x2 = 1

∴ y1 = 1 , y2 = -5

∴ z1 = 2 , z2 = 4

∴ m1 = 3 , m2 = 2

- By using the rule above

∴ $x=\frac{3(1)-2(3)}{3-2}=\frac{3-6}{1}=\frac{-3}{1}=-3$

∴ $y=\frac{3(-5)-2(1)}{3-2}=\frac{x=-15-2}{1}=\frac{-17}{1}=-17$

∴ $z=\frac{3(4)-2(2)}{3-2}=\frac{12-4}{1}=\frac{8}{1}=8$

∴ The coordinates fo point c are (-3 , -17 , 8)

* The position vector of point C is <-3 , -17 , 8> or -3i - 17j + 8k
