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)

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. 
I hope this helps!</span>

X = A 21.6 B 12.9 C 9.1
Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

B: 12.9

Step-by-step explanation:

If A B and C are the alternatives, the answer is B: 12.9

The reason is that the hypotenuse can't be smaller than one of its sides, that eliminates alternative C.

And also, the hypotenuse can't be bigger than segments AC + BC, since the side AC is bigger and AC measures 10.8, the hypotenuse would have to measure < 21.6

Any questions, comment.

I don’t know the answer to this question.

6×(1×5)=(6×1)×5

6×5=6×5

30=30

Always do the brackets first.

Follow BEDMAS

B = Brackets

E = Exponent

D = Division

M = multiplication

A = Addition

S = Substruction

I need help I don't understand it.
BartSMP [9]

These angles are corresponding angles, and we know that corresponding angles are equal when a transversal intersects two parallel lines.

So,

8x - 12 = 6x + 8

=> 8x - 6x = 8 + 12

=> 2x = 20

=> x = 20/2

=> x = 10

So, the value of x is 10.
