<span>Since the value of k can be determined by </span>dividing the numerator of the original ratio, which is 5, by the sum of the numerator and denominator of the ratio:<span>
(5+3)=8

Thus the value for  k = 5/8

Answer:

\frac{5}{8}

Step-by-step explanation:

We are asked to find the value of k used to determine the coordinates of a point that partitions a segment into a ratio of 5:3.

The value of k would be 5 divided by the sum of 5 and 3.

k=\frac{5}{3+5}

k=\frac{5}{8}

Therefore, the value of k is \frac{5}{8}.

Simplify (9x-1)^-1/2 - (x+2)(9x-1)^-1/2
iren2701 [21]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(9x-1)^-1/2 - (x+2)(9x-1)^-1/2

= (9x-1)^-1/2( 1 - (x + 2))

= (9x-1)^-1/2(-1 - x)

= -(x + 1)(9x-1)^-1/2

= -(x + 1) / (9x-1)^1/2

What is the slope of a line parallel to the line whose equation is
Lyrx [107]

Answer:

slope = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Given

9x - 3y = - 54 ( subtract 9x from both sides )

- 3y = - 9x - 54 ( divide all terms by 0 3 )

y = 3x + 18 ← in slope- intercept form

with slope m = 3

Parallel lines have equal slopes, thus

slope of parallel line is 3

Please help with this simple trig problem- angle of two sectors of a circle
igomit [66]

Answer:

  K = (1/2)r^2(sin(θ) +θ)

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of the triangle to the left is ...

  A1 = (1/2)r^2·sin(180°-θ) = (1/2)r^2·sin(θ)

The area of the sector to the right is ...

  A2 = (1/2)r^2θ

so the total area of the blue shaded region is ...

  K = A1 + A2 = (1/2)r^2·sin(θ) + (1/2)r^2·θ

  K = (1/2)r^2(sin(θ) +θ)
