The endpoints of CD are C(–8, 4) and D(6, –6). What are the coordinates of point P on CD such that P is the length of the line s
egment from D? (–2.75, 0.25) (–5, 2.5) (0.75, –2.25) (3.75, –3.75)
2 answers:
If you graph the end points C and D then graph the 4 points at the end it is difficult to tell which points are on CD without a line.
Using the endpoints find the slope (change in y/ change in x) then substitute a point in to find the intercept.
Slope = (-6-4)/(6- -8) = -5/7
Intercept equation (-6) = -5/7 (6) + b
b = -1.71428571429
Graphing the line shows only 2 points on the line (–2.75, 0.25) and <span>(0.75, –2.25)
I am confused by the part, "</span><span>P is the length of the line segment from D". Were you given a length P to help you determine which point. Using the distance formula to find the length from each point to D doesn't help determine which one is best with the information you have given. The image shows the distances I calculated and the graphed points.

Answer:
C) v≤-5
Step-by-step explanation:
Divide each side by 4,
Step-by-step explanation:
We have been given that David, Egil and Frances share money in the ratio 2:7:9.
Let 2x, 7x and 9x be the amounts of money that David, Agil and Frances get respectively.
We are told that Frances gets $80 more than David. So we can write this information in an equation as:
Now let us solve for x.
Now let us substitute in 7x (amount of money that Egil gets).
Upon cancelling out 7 from numerator and denominator we will get,
Therefore, Egil will get $80.
Answer:
z = -4 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
1. First change the mixed fractions to improper fractions so it's easier
2. Simplify
3. Cross multiply
4. Simplify again (distributive property)
5. Distributive property
6. Subtract 32 from both sides
7. Simplify
8. Subtract 80 from both sides
9. Simplify
10. Divide both sides by 16
11. Simplify
