Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the section formula, if a point (x,y) divides the line joining the points (x
1
,y
1
) and (x
2
,y
2
) in the ratio m:n, then
(x,y)=(
m+n

)
The vertices of the triangle are given to be (x
1
,y
1
),(x
2
,y
2
) and (x
3
,y
3
). Let these vertices be A,B and C respectively.
Then the coordinates of the point P that divides AB in l:k will be
(

)
The coordinates of point which divides PC in m:k+l will be

Answer:
x = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
y=-2 is a horizontal line so x must be a vertical line through (4,-2)
Inverse proportion is of the form:
y=k/x, in this case the variables are
z=k/x, and we are given the point (6,2) so we can solve for k
2=k/6
12=k, so our equation is:
z=12/x, so when x=13
z=12/13
Answer is c (there is not a enough info given)
