Answer:

(0, -4)

Step-by-step explanation:

The coordinates of the points from which the directed line segment extends = (-6, -6) to (9, -1)

The ratio the required point partitions the line = 2 to 3

The formula for finding the coordinate of a point that partitions a line AB into a ratio 'a' to 'b', where the coordinates of, A = (x₁, y₁) and B = (x₂, y₂) is given as follows;

\left(\dfrac{a}{a + b} \times (x_1 - x_2)+ x_1, \ \dfrac{a}{a + b} \times (y_1 - y_2)+ y_1 \right)

Therefore, the required point is located as follows;

\left(\dfrac{2}{2 + 3} \times (9 - (-6))+ (-6), \ \dfrac{2}{2 + 3}\times (-1 - (-6))+ (-6) \right) = (0, -4)

The coordinates of the point is (0, -4)

A slug travels 3 centimeters in 3 seconds. A snail travels 6 centimeters in 6 seconds. Both travel at constant speeds. Mai says,
ollegr [7]

Answer:

Mai is wrong since both travel the same distance in the same amount of seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

3 centimeters in 3 seconds is 1 centimeter a second for the slug

6 centimeters in 6 seconds is 1 centimeter a second for the snail

so both travel the same distance

The table below represents a linear function f(x) and the equation represents a function g(x):
Aneli [31]
Slope of f(x)


Slope of g(x)


PART A)
The slopes of f(x) and g(x) are the same.

PART B)
The equation for line f(x)
y = 4x + b
-1 = 4(0) + b
-1 = b

y = 4x - 1

The function G(x) has a bigger y-intercept. The y-intercept of g(x) is 3, while the y-intercept of f(x) is -1.
