<u>The question does not clearly specify from which endpoint Q is at 2/3. I'll assume Q is 2/3 away from R.</u>

Answer:

<em>The point Q is (2,3)</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Take the aligned points R(-2,1), S(4,4), and Q(x,y) in such a way that Q is 2/3 away from R (assumed).

The required point Q must satisfy the relation:

d(RQ) = 2/3 d(RS)

Where d is the distance between two points.

The horizontal and vertical axes also satisfy the same relation:

x(RQ) = 2/3 x(RS)

x_R-x_Q=2/3(x_R-x_S)

And, similarly:

y_R-y_Q=2/3(y_R-y_S)

Working on the first condition:

-2-x=2/3(-2-4)=2/3(-6)

Removing the parentheses:

-2-x=-4

Adding 2:

-x = -2

x = 2

Similarly, working with the vertical component:

1-y=2/3(1-4)=2/3(-3)

Removing the parentheses:

1-y=-2

Subtracting 1:

-y = -3

y = 3

The point Q is (2,3)

What is one thousand five hundred divided by five equal
Vikki [24]

Answer: 300

We know that 5×3=15. Since we are trying to get 1500 we Multiply 300×5 and get 1500.

<u>How do we know?</u>

  • As you can see if you cross out 2 of the 0 in 300 you have 3×5. When you multiply it you get 15.
  • Also if you cross out 1 of the 0 in 300 you have 30×5. When you multiply that you get 150.

As you see when you still multiply either of those problems you have 15 in it. So we should know 300×5=1500.

Note: We can also multiply 500×3 and get 1500. You still get the same answer but just switched numbers.

A store has a 20% off sale. Which equation
rodikova [14]

Answer:

80%/100%×$24

Step-by-step explanation:

I don't see any options here so let's work it out.

If all prices are reduced by 20%,it implies that 80% of the original value is charged to the buyer as sales price.

Since original value of the pants is $24-100%

then sales value(80%)=(80%/100%×$24)
