Answer:

2:4 means one part is 2/(2+4)=1/3 of AB and the other part is 2/3 of AB

Step-by-step explanation:

Add 1/3 of the distance from -2 to 4. (1/3)(4+2)=2. -2+2=0 The x coordinate is 0

Subtract 1/3 of the distance from 6 to -6, (1/3)6+6)=4 6-4=2 The y coordinate is 2

The point is (0,2)

Check the answer

distance from (-2,6) to (0,2) is square root of (-2)^2 + (4)^2 = sqr20 = 2(5)^2

distance from (0,2) to (4,-6) is square root of (4)^2 +(8)^2 = sqr80 = 4(5)^2

First distance is half the 2nd distance, so the point divides AB into 2 parts in a ratio of 2:4

Answer:

Yes it is a function

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to check the ordered pairs to find out if given relation is a function or not.

In an ordered pair, the first element represents the input and the second element represents the output.

The set of inputs is domain and output is range.

For a relation to be function, there should be no repetition in domain i.e there should be unique pairs of input and output.
