I hope i read this right you put down y= -3/10x - 8 so this in standard form i think is 3x/10 +y =-8.
I am not sure if i read your question right but this is the answer i got when i tried solving this question
Answer:
M = 1 and M = -7.5
Step-by-step explanation:
The distance between A and B is 6 - (-1.5) = 7.5
Point 1: M is between AB. Since AM:MB = 1:2 then AM:AB = 1:(1+2) = 1:3
that means AM = 7.5 / 3 = 2.5
So M is at -1.5 + 2.5 = 1
Point 2: A is between MB. Since AM:MB = 1:2 then AM:AB = 1:(2-1) = 1
That means AM = AB = 6
So M is at -1.5 - 6 = -7.5
Start with subtracting 4x from both sides:
9y=6-4x
Then divide both sides by 9:
y= (6-4x)/9
Simplify:
y= (1-4x)/3
Do the problem little by little:
First, -20/48 reduces to -5/12.
Next, (t^5) / (t^7) simplifies to 1 / (t^2).
Same with u^2 / u^4: 1 / u^2
v^3 / v^1 = v^2
Let's put the factors back together:
-5 * v^2
--------------------------
12 * u^2 * t^2
-5 v
This could be left as is, or shortened: ----- * [ ------- ]^2
12 t*u
