Answer:

Integers are 4 and 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the two consecutive even integers be $x,x+2$ such that $x$

Six times the lesser of the two consecutive even integers is 4 times the greater even integer.

So,

$6x=4(x+2)\\6x=4x+8\\6x-4x=8\\2x=8\\x=4$

Other integer $=x+2=4+2=6$

Find the coordinates of point X that lies along the directed line segment from Y(-8, 8) to T(-15, -13) and partitions the segmen

Nataly_w [17]

Answer:

C. (-13, -7)

Step-by-step explanation:

The location of a point O(x, y) that divides a line AB with location A $(x_1,y_1)$ and B $(x_2,y_2)$ in the ratio m:n is given by:

$x=\frac{m}{m+n} (x_2-x_1)+x_1\\\\y=\frac{m}{m+n} (y_2-y_1)+y_1$

Therefore the coordinates of point X That divides line segment from Y(-8, 8) to T(-15, -13) in the ratio 5:2 is:

$x=\frac{5}{5+2} (-15-(-8))+(-8)\\\\x=\frac{5}{7} (-15+8)-8=\frac{5}{7}(-7)-8=-5-8=-13 \\\\\\y=\frac{5}{5+2} (-13-8)+8\\\\y=\frac{5}{7} (-21)+8=5(-3)+8=-15+8=-7$

Therefore the coordinates of point X is at (-13, -7)
