Points F,G, and H are collinear such that FG:FH=2/3.If a directed line segment begins at F(-3,2) and ends at H (-3,7), find the
Nana76 [90]
We consider the x- and y-coordinates separately. Let the coordinates of G be (x, y). Now considering the x-coordinates:
FG/FH = (x - (-3)) / (-3 - (-3)) = 2/3
x + 3 = (2/3)(6)
x = 1
For the y-coordinates:
FG/FH = (y - 2) / (7 - 2) = 2/3
y - 2 = (2/3)(5)
y = 16/3
Therefore the coordinates of G are (1, 16/3).

Two ladders AB and PQ are resting against opposite
muminat

Answer:

The length of the longer ladder is 35 ft Step-by-step explanation: Please check the attachment for a diagrammatic representation of the problem We want to calculate the length of the longer ladder ; We make reference to the diagram Since the two right triangles formed are similar. the ratios of their sides are equal; Thus; 20/15 = 28/x + 15 20(x + 15) = 15(28) 20x + 300 = 420 20x = 420-300 20x = 120 x = 120/20 x = 6 So we want to calculate the hypotenuse of a right triangle with other sides 28ft and 21 ft To do this, we use the Pythagoras’ theorem which states that square of the hypotenuse equals the sum of the squares of the two other sides Let the hypotenuse be marked x x^2 = 28^2 + 21^2 x^2 = 1,225

x = √1225

x = 35 ft

A customer went to a garden shop and bought some potting soil for $12.50 and 5 shrubs. The total bill was $62.50. Write and solv
lesya692 [45]

Answer:  Equation:  5x = 62.50 - 12.50    or   x = \frac{62.50-12.50}{5}  

x is the cost of each shrub  x = $10

Step-by-step explanation:  Total bill = $62.50.

Subtract the cost of potting soil for $12.50 to find the cost of just the shrubs.   5x  equals that amount

5x = 62.50 - 12.50

5x = 50   divide both sides by 5  

5x/5 = 50/5

x = 10

In the figure below, AMNO
NeX [460]

Given:

\Delta MNO\cong \Delta PQR

To find:

The length of QR.

Solution:

We have,

\Delta MNO\cong \Delta PQR

Then, MN=PQ                 (CPCTC)

10=4x-2

10+2=4x

12=4x

Divide both sides by 4.

\dfrac{12}{4}=x

3=x

Similarity,

MO=PR            (CPCTC)

2y+3=21

2y=21-3

2y=18

Divide both sides by 2.

y=9

Now,

x+y=3+9

x+y=12

Therefore, the correct option is d.
