Refer to the graph shown below. It confirms that points A, B and P are
collinear.
Calculate the length of AP (as a).
a = √[(6 - 2)² + (11 - 3)²]
= 8.9443
Calculate the length of BP (as b).
b = √[(8 - 6)² + (15 - 11)²]
= 4.4721
Calculate ratio a/b.
a/b = 8.9443/4.4721 = 2
Therefore P partitions AB in a 2:1 ratio so that AP = 2*BP.
Answer: 2:1 ratio.
The answer is to your question is x=-6
(2x+1)=Jeremy´s age
(2x+3)=Sam´s age.
we suggest this equation:
(2x+1)(2x+3)=783
4x²+6x+2x+3=783
4x²+8x-780=0
x²+2x-195=0
We solve this quadratic equation:
x=[-2⁺₋√(4-4*1*(-195))]/2=(-2⁺₋28)/2
x₁=(-2-28)/2=-15 this solution is not valid.
x₂=(-2+28)/2=13
Jeremy´s age=2x+1=2*13+1=27
Sam´s age=2x+3=2*13+3=29
Answer:
yessirrr cuz ion kno the answer to this question
