<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}.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

50.

line AB that has the points (2,5) and (9,2) hhas the slope

m= (y2-y1) / (x2-x1)= 5-2 / 2-9 = 3/-7 = -3/7

Parallel line have the same slope so m= -3/7 for the line that has the point (-3,4).

Point-slope equation is y-y1 = m (x-x1), y -4 = -3/4 (x+3) or

you can writte it as y= (-3/4)x - 9/4 +16/4 so y = (-3/4)x + 7/4

51.

line PQ has slope m= -6+1 / 4-6 = -5/-2 = 5/2

Perpendicular lines have their slope negative reciprocal of eachother so the line that goes trough the point (1,3) has the slope m= -2/5

y-3 = -2/5 (x-1)

Write 0.07131 correct to 3 decimal places
lesantik [10]
The first decimal place has the digit 0


the second decimal place has the digit 7

the third decimal place has the digit ....either 1 or 2.

this depends on the forth one, if it was 5 or higher, the third digit would be 2
since the fourth digit is 3, which is lower than 5, we don't have to change the third digit : it remains a "1"

so the answer is 0.071

What is the midpoint of (-2,3) and (10,3) *simple answer please
Allushta [10]

The "midpoint formula" is the same as the "average formula:"

x-coordinate of the midpoint = average of -2 and 10:

= (-2 + 10) / 2 = 4


y-coordinate of the midpoint = average of 3 and 3:

= (3+3) / 2 = 3

Thus, the midpoint of the given line segment is (4,3).
