<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)

Divide the number 720 into the following Ratios<br><br>2:1:3<br><br>5:4​
solmaris [256]

Answer:

Ratio 1 = a(240

=b)120

=c)360

Ratio 2=a)400

=b)320

Step-by-step explanation:

On both of the ratios you first add them then divide one by one like this for example 2+1+3= 6

then 2/6 ÷720 = 120 ×2 =240 then you do this to the other numbers as well.

A rectangle field is five times as long as it is wide. If the perimeter of the field is 288 yards, what are the field's dimensio
mr_godi [17]

x + x + 5x + 5x = 288 \\ 12x = 288 \\ x = 24

Width = 24 yards
Length = 24 x 5 = 120 yards

Area =
24 \times 120 = 2880 \: sq. \: yrds

Hope this helps. - M
