Answer: about 22 minutes
Explanation: its hard to explain but trust me i checked my work
Since M divides segment AB into a ratio of 5:2, we can say that M is 5/(5+2) of the length of AB. Therefore 5/7 × AB.
distance of AB = d
5/7×(x2 - x1) for the x and 5/7×(y2 - y1) for the y
5/7×(8 - 1) = 5/7 (7) = 5 for the x
and 5/7×(16 - 2) = 5/7 (14) = 10 for the y
But remember the line AB starts at A (1, 2),
so add 1 to the x: 5+1 = 6
and add 2 to the y: 10+2 = 12
Therefore the point M lies exactly at...
A) (6, 12)
Answer:
5 5/6
Step-by-step explanation:
Change them into improper fractions. Multiply the denominator by the whole number and then add the numerator. Put that number over the denominator.
2 X 3 = 6 3 X 2 = 6
6 + 1 = 7 6 + 1 = 7
7/3 7/2
New expression: 7/3 + 7/2
Find a common denominator. Both denominators can go into 6.
14/6 + 21/6 = 35/6
Change this back into a mixed number by dividing.
Answer: 5 5/6
