Partial sums 359+342=

find the coordinates of point Z that splits the segment XY located 3/7 of the way between X(-2,1) and Y(4,5)

Drupady [299]

Answer:

Z(-0.2, 2.2).

Step-by-step explanation:

We will use section formula when a point, say P, divides any segment ,say AB, internally in the ratio m:n.

$[x=\frac{mx_2+nx_1}{m+n}, y= \frac{my_2+ny_1}{m+n}]$

We have been given the points of segment XY as X at (-2,1) and Y at (4,5) and ratio is 3:7.

$(x_1, y_1)=(-2,1)$

$(x_2, y_2)=(4,5)$

$m:n=3:7$

Upon substituting coordinates of our given points in section formula we will get,

$[x=\frac{(3*4)+(7*-2)}{3+7}, y= \frac{3*5+7*1}{3+7}]$

$[x=\frac{12-14}{10}, y= \frac{15+7}{10}]$

$[x=\frac{-2}{10}, y= \frac{22}{10}]$

$[x=-0.2, y= 2.2]$

Therefore, coordinates of point Z will be (-0.2, 2.2).

Carly draws quadrilateral JKLM with vertices J(-3,3), K(3,3), L(2,-1),and M(-2, -1). What is the best way to classify the quadri

Trava [24]

Answer:

Trapezoid

Step-by-step explanation:

The points are shown in the attached graph.

You can clearly see from the picture that it is a "Trapezoid".

Trapezoid is basically a quadrilateral (4 sided-figure) that has 1/2 pair of parallel sides.

On the other hand, a parallelogram has 2 pair of parallel sides.

Thus, a parallelogram is a special type of trapezoid where there are 2 pair of parallel sides. But trapezoid need not be a parallelogram.

The picture shows 1 pair of parallel sides, hence it is a trapezoid.

.. Discuss the nature of the root of equation x2 + 2x + 3 = 0

Mariana [72]

Answer:

No real roots

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation:

x² + 2x + 3 = 0

On comparing the equation by ax² + bx + x = 0, We get: a = 1, b = 2 and c = 3

To Find the nature of the roots of the equation firstly we need to find the discriminant of the equation. The expression b²- 4ac is called the discriminant.

$~$

Two Distinct real roots, if b² - 4ac > 0
Two equal real roots, if b² - 4ac = 0
No real roots, if b² - 4ac < 0

$\\ \: \: \dashrightarrow \: \: \: \sf {b}^{2} - 4ac = 0 \\ \\ \\\: \: \dashrightarrow \: \: \: \sf (2)² - 4 \times 1 \times 3 = 0 \\ \\ \\ \: \: \dashrightarrow \: \: \: \sf 4 - 4 \times 1 \times 3 = 0 \\ \\ \\ \: \: \dashrightarrow \: \: \: \sf 4 - 12 = 0 \\ \\ \\ \: \: \dashrightarrow \: \: \: \sf {\underline{\boxed{\sf{\purple{ -8 > 0}}}}} \\ \\$

The discriminant is smaller than 0.

Hence, Equation has no real roots (no solution)

Caroline's soccer practice starts at a quarter after 4 P.M. And ends at 5 P.M. How many minutes does her soccer practice last?

HACTEHA [7]

Caroline's soccer practice starts at a quarter after 4 P.M. And ends at 5 P.M. How many minutes does her soccer practice last?

Answer:

A quarter after 4 P.M is 4:15

So soccer practice lasts 45 minutes.

Hope that helps and good luck
