A, B, and C are collinear, and B is between A and C. The ratio of AB to AC is 1:4. If A is at (-7,-8) and B is at (-3,-5) what a

Galina-37 [17]

To get the coordinates of C we shall proceed as follows:

AB:BC=1:4
B-A=[(-3--7),(-5--8)]=(4,3)
4(4,3)=(16,12)
thus the coordinates of C will be:
(16-3,-5+12)
=(13,7)

Misha Larkins [42]

Answer: The original price of washing machine is $250.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Rate of decline in normal prices = 17%

Amount of normal price reduced by = $42.50

Let the original price be x

According to question,

$\frac{17}{100}\times x=42.50\\\\x=\frac{100}{17}\times 42.50\\\\x=\$250$

Hence, The original price of washing machine is $250.
