Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Although you can start with 4x^2-2x-4=0, it's just slightly easier to reduce the coefficients. 4x^2-2x-4=0 becomes 2x^2 - x - 2 = 0.
The discriminant (part of the quadratic formula) is b^2 - 4ac. Using b = -1. a = 1 and c = -2, we get (-1)^2 - 4(2)(-2), or 17.
-b ± √(b^2 - 4ac)
Then the quadratic formula x = ---------------------------
2a
-(-1) ± √17 1 ± √17
takes on the values x = ----------------- = ---------------
4 4
25.3 is what i got for the first image.
Here is the formula for finding a partitioning point:
x=x1+k(x2-x1), y=y1+k(y2-y1)
k is the ratio of the segment from the beginning point to the partitioning : the whole segment. In this case, k=AP:AB=5/16
so x=1+(5/16)*(-2-1)=1/16
y=6+(5/16)(-3-6)=51/16
so the answer is (-1/16, 51/16)
Please double check my calculation by yourself.
refer to this website for the formula and how to find k:
"This ratio is called k, and is determined by writing the numerator over the sum of the numerator and the denominator of the original ratio."

Answer:
For the given functions, the value of g(5)-f(5) = 17
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, the given functions are:
f(x) = -3x + 17

So, f(5) = -3(5) + 17
= -15 + 17 = 2
And 
So, f(5) = 2 and g(5) = 19
⇒g(5) - f(5) = 19 - 2 = 17
Hence, for the given functions, the value of g(5)-f(5) = 17
