atroni [7]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

(0, 7)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

J(-4, 11)

K(8, -1)

JP:JK = 1/3

Required:

Coordinates of P

SOLUTION:

Use the formula, (x, y) = (x_1 + k(x_2 - x_1), y_1 + k(y_2 - y_1)) to find the coordinates of point P, that partition the segment JK into the ratio 1/3.

Let,

J(-4, 11) = (x_1, y_1)

K(8, -1) = (x_2, y_2)

k = \frac{1}{3}

Thus, plug in the values as follows:

P(x, y) = (-4 + \frac{1}{3}(8 -(-4)), 11 + \frac{1}{3}(-1 - 11)

P(x, y) = (-4 + \frac{1}{3}(12), 11 + \frac{1}{3}(-12)

P(x, y) = (-4 + \frac{12}{3}, 11 + \frac{-12}{3})

P(x, y) = (-4 + 4,  11 + (-4)

P(x, y) = (0, 7)

The coordinates of point P, are (0, 7)

Find the value of x that makes the two triangles equal
Leona [35]

Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

\triangle CDE \sim\triangle FGH...(given)

\therefore \frac{CD}{FG}=\frac{CE}{FH}...(csst)

\therefore \frac{4x}{28}=\frac{25}{35}

\therefore \frac{x}{7}=\frac{5}{7}

\therefore x=\frac{7\times 5}{7}

\therefore x=5

what is the equation in slope form of the line that is parallel to the given line and passes through the point (-3,1)​
viktelen [127]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in point- slope form is

y - b = m(x - a)

where m is the slope and (a, b) a point on the line

Calculate the slope of the given line using the slope formula

m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 2, - 4) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (2, 2) ← 2 points on the line

m = \frac{2+4}{2+2} = \frac{6}{4} = \frac{3}{2}

Parallel lines have equal slopes and using (a, b) = (- 3, 1), then

y - 1 = \frac{3}{2}(x - (- 3)), that is

y - 1 = \frac{3}{2}(x + 3) ← in point- slope form

Last week, steph curry made 56 free throws. if his free throw percentage is 80%, how many free throws did he attempt?
Finger [1]
80% of what is 56
0.80x = 56
x = 56 / 0.80
x = 70....so he attempted 70 free throws
