DE : DF = 2 : 5

So, DE = 2 parts and DF = 5 parts

EF = DF - DE

    = 5 - 2

    = 3 parts

DE : EF = 2 : 3

Let D be (x, y).

Then, the point E divides the line segment DF internally in the ratio 2 : 3.

So, E is (\frac{2(-3)+3x}{2+3}, \frac{2(-4)+3y}{2+3} )

=(\frac{3x-6}{5}, \frac{3y-8}{5} )

But, it is given that E is (-3, 2).

Therefore,

\frac{3x-6}{5} = -3 and \frac{3y-8}{5}=2

3x - 6 = -15 and 3y - 8 = 10

3x = -9 and 3y = 18

x = -3 and y = 6

Hence, D is (-3, 6)

What would you write for the rang of this graph
VladimirAG [237]

The range of any graph are the set of all the y-values of the graph. For this graph, it goes all the way from 0 to about 3.5. I'd say the range of this graph was {0, 3.5}. Hope I could help!

Explain how to count the elements, molecules, and atoms in the following
kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

Im positive that u wrote the formula wrong, theres no dot on a formula. What I understand on how to count each molecules is by the following

1) The coefficient in front of the molecules serves a type of multiplier, lets say 3 CO2, you take the 3 and multiply to each atom, so it would be 3 C and with O you do 3x2 cause 2 oxygen atom and it would become 6 O.

2) For the bracket lets say (CH3)2, Its the same thing as coefficient, the subscript 2 serves as a mulitplier, so there would br 2 C and 6 H

3) What happens if you have both the coefficient and subscript. Well, lets take an example of 2(NH3)2, you multiply everything together. So by doing the example, N would be 2 x 1( because theres 1 N) x 2( this being the subscript), which would be 4 N. For H, its 2 x 3(Because theres 3 H atoms) x 2(this being the subscript), which is equals to 12 H atoms.

Hope I didnt confuse you that much and asnwered your questipn, good luck in your future test. : )

Factor 4a^2-b^2-2a+b
Marianna [84]

Answer:Equation at the end of step 1

 

STEP

2

:

           4a2 - b2

Simplify   ————————

            2a - b  

Trying to factor as a Difference of Squares:

2.1      Factoring:  4a2 - b2  

Theory : A difference of two perfect squares,  A2 - B2  can be factored into  (A+B) • (A-B)

Proof :  (A+B) • (A-B) =

        A2 - AB + BA - B2 =

        A2 - AB + AB - B2 =

        A2 - B2

Note :  AB = BA is the commutative property of multiplication.

Note :  - AB + AB equals zero and is therefore eliminated from the expression.

Check :  4  is the square of  2  

Check :  a2  is the square of  a1  

Check :  b2  is the square of  b1  

Factorization is :       (2a + b)  •  (2a - b)  

Canceling Out :

2.2    Cancel out  (2a - b)  which appears on both sides of the fraction line.

Final result :

 2a + b
