To solve a proportion you would cross multiply.
(4/5) = (14/x)
5(14) = 4x
70 = 4x
divide both sides by 4
17.5 = x

Paraphin [41]

<h3>Answer: True</h3>

Slope formula

m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

m = (7 - 3)/(2 - (-2))

m = (7 - 3)/(2 + 2)

m = 4/4

m = 1

Find the coordinates of a point that divides the directed line segment XY in the ratio 2:6. answers: A) (3, 5) B) (–1, –3) C) (0

Stells [14]

Answer:

Option D.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the coordinates of a point which divides the segment XY in the ratio of m : n is (x, y).

Segment X(-4, -9) and Y(4, 7) has been divided in the ratio of 2 : 6.

Therefore, x = $\frac{[4m+n(-4)]}{m+n}=\frac{8-24}{2+6}$

= - $\frac{16}{8}$

= -2

and y = $\frac{[7m+n(-9)]}{m+n}=\frac{14-54}{2+6}$

= $-\frac{40}{8}$

= -5

Therefore, the point (x, y) is (-2, -5).

Option D. will be the answer.
