Directed line segment AB has endpoints A(2,3) and B(8,15). Point P has coordinated P(6,11). What ratio does P partition AB into?
Vladimir79 [104]
Refer to the graph shown below. It confirms that points A, B and P are
 collinear.

Calculate the length of AP (as a).
a = √[(6 - 2)² + (11 - 3)²]
   = 8.9443

Calculate the length of BP (as b).
b = √[(8 - 6)² + (15 - 11)²]
   = 4.4721

Calculate ratio a/b.
a/b = 8.9443/4.4721 = 2
Therefore P partitions AB in a 2:1 ratio so that AP = 2*BP.

Answer:  2:1 ratio.

If f(7)=22, then f-1(22)=
nignag [31]

Answer:

f^{-1} (22) = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

The inverse function maps the output of the function back to its input

f(7) = 22 means when input is 7 the output is 22

The inverse maps the output 22 back to the input 7 , that is

f^{-1} (22) = 7
