In what ratio of line x-y-2=0 divides the line segment joining (3,-1)and (8,9)​

Mathematics

NISA [10]3 years ago

Answer:

The ratio in which the line x-y-2=0 divides the line joining A(3,-1) and B(8,9) is in the ratio 2:3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let (x, y) be the coordinates of point of intersection.

Hence x=(a*8+1*3)(a+1) = (8a+3)/(a+1)

and

y = {a*9+1*(-1)}/(a+1)=(9a-1)/(a+1)

Since this point lies on the line x-y-2=0

Hence (8a+3)/(a+1)-(9a-1)/(a+1)-2=0

i.e. 8a+3–9a+1–2(a+1)=0

Or 8a+3–9a+1–2a-2=0

i.e.-3a+2=0

Hence a=2/3

hence the ratio in which the line x-y-2=0 divides the line joining A(3,-1) and B(8,9) in the ratio 2/3:1

i.e. 2:3

if the formula for the perimeter of a rectangle is p=2l+2w, what is the formula for w in terms of p and l
aleksklad [387]

Answer:

(p-2l)/2 = w

Step-by-step explanation:

p=2l+2w


We want to solve for w.

The first step is to subtract 2l from each side

p-2l=2l-2l+2w

p-2l=2w

Then we will divide each side by 2 to isolate w

(p-2l)/2 = 2w/2

(p-2l)/2 = w

<em>Answer:</em>

<em>Hello There. The answer is 268</em>

Explanation

He spend £140 for 60 jumper

He sells 40%of jumper at £8 for each.

40%of 60

= 40/100 × 60

= 24 jumper

=sells at £8

= 24 ×8 =£192

After ,he sell buy 1 get one half price offer.

Ryan have 60% jumper of 60

= 36/2×8 +36/2×4

=144 + 72

= £216

Total earning= £192 + £216

=£408

So, profit = 408 - 140 = £268

Hope It Helps!

Answer:

17

Step-by-step explanation:

So, this is a percentage problem.

Start off by finding how many students 0.28% is:

If 100% = 5780

0.01% = 0.578                          

Now:

0.01% = 0.578

0.28% = 16.184

The exercise tells you to round for a whole person, so 16.184 turns 17

And that's the answer!
