Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the coordinates of pointD if A(2,-6), B(10,2) and point D divides line segment AB in the ratio of 5:3.

If point D divides the segment AB in the ratio m:n, then

D\left(\dfrac{nx_A+mx_B}{m+n},\dfrac{ny_A+my_B}{m+n}\right)

So

D\left(\dfrac{3\cdot 2+5\cdot 10}{5+3},\dfrac{3\cdot (-6)+5\cdot 2B}{5+3}\right)=D(7,-1)

Point C has the x-coordinate the same as point A and the y-coordinate the same as point D.

Thus, C(2,-1)

Answer:

D.(2, -1)

Step-by-step explanation:

As you can see you only need to calculate the Y of the point C since the X can be reasoned out from the fact that it is a vertical line that goes up from point A which is located on (2,-6), so point C will be in x=2 as well, now we jsut have to calculate where is located on the Y point D, since point C and D are horizontally placed on the same line, they will share value for Y.

If AB= (2-(-6) = (2+6)=8, and AB is divided by point D in a ratio of 5:3, this means that from A to D on the Y vector there are 5 units of difference so you just add them up: -6+5=-1, and you´ve found the Y.

So the point C is located in (2,-1).

Deffense [45]

Answer:

145°

Step-by-step explanation:

See the attachment.  Angles A, B, and C all belong to the triangle.

We know that A + B + C = 180° since the angles of a triangle always add to 180°.  We also know that when two lines meet that their sum is also equal to 180°.  So we can write for each interior angle the following:

                                    <u>  Result</u>

<A = (180 - 88)                72

<B = (180-x)                  180-x

<C = (180 - 127)               53

The sum of angles A, B, and C is equal to 180:

 72 + (180-x) + 53 = 180

<h2><u>x = 145</u></h2>

What function equation is represented by the graph? f(x)=14x+3 f(x)=−4x−3 f(x)=−14x−3 f(x)=14x−3
Vladimir [108]

See the explanation

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

Remember you have to provide complete questions in order to get exact answers. Here I'll provide a general explanation, so:

<h3>First.</h3>

f(x)=14x+3

The slope is:

m=14

The y-intercept is:

b=3

By using graphing tool, we get the first graph shown below.

<h3>Second.</h3>

f(x)=-4x-3

The slope is:

m=-4

The y-intercept is:

b=-3

By using graphing tool, we get the second graph shown below.

<h3>Third.</h3>

f(x)=-14x-3

The slope is:

m=-14

The y-intercept is:

b=-3

By using graphing tool, we get the third graph shown below.

<h3>Fourth.</h3>

f(x)=14x-3

The slope is:

m=14

The y-intercept is:

b=-3

By using graphing tool, we get the fourth graph shown below.
