The coordinates of X are (5, 11).
Solution:
Given points of the line segment are P(2, 2) and T(7, 17)
Let X be the point that partitions the directed line segment PT in the ratio 3 : 2
Using section formula, we can find the coordinate of the point that partitions the line segment.
Section formula:
Here, 
and m = 3, n =2
Substitute these in the section formula,
X(x, y) = (5, 11)
The coordinates of X are (5, 11).
2y-2>-4+2. Add 2 to both sides. Now you have 2y>-2+2. Erm. I might be wrong since I JUST learned this unit and I made some mistakes. Ok soo, add 2 to both sides again. Now you have 2y+2>2. Subtract 2 from both sides. You now have 2y>0. You have no solution since 2 can't be divided by 0. I'm probably wrong but I hope I helped...ish.
It would be 6.875 i do believe
Answer:
x = -3, y = 7.
Step-by-step explanation:
x + 3y = 18
-3x - 12y = -75
Multiply the first equation by 3:
3x + 9y = 54
Adding the last 2 equations to eliminate x:
-3y = -21
y = 7.
Substitute y = 7 into the first equation:
x + 3(7) = 18
x + 21 = 18
x = 18 - 21
x = -3.
Answer:
x=3
