Answer:
<em>Point P has coordinates (7,9) (last choice)</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the endpoints A(2,4) B(8,10) and the point P lying on the segment AB with the condition that P partitions it in the ratio 5:1.
This means the distances AP, PB and AB follow the conditions:
AP+PB=AB
We can work with each coordinate separately. Suppose P has coordinates (x,y), thus:
Adding 5x and subtracting:
Dividing by 6:
Substituting:
x=7
Now for the y-axis:
Substituting:
y=9
Point P has coordinates (7,9) (last choice)
Answer: D.
Step-by-step explanation:
7 x (2+3) = 7 x (3+2)
7 x (5) = 7 x (5)
35 = 35
Due to the Commutative Property of Multiplication
Protons is the answer that makes the most sense
Because the rule can be either x2; 1x2=2;2x2=4;4x2=8
or +1;+2;+3;+4...
1+1=2;2+2=4;4+3=7;...
