A european business has offered to donate to the Salvation Army, but they are requiring a detailed report on expenditures. Chase

and his brother are tasked with converting distances measured in miles to kilometers. To estimate the number of kilometers, Chase takes the number of miles, doubles it and then subtracts 20% of the result. Alex, Chase's brother, first divides the number of miles by 5 and then multiplies the result by 8.

Answer:

Both processes are correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the mile taken by Chase be 10miles .

He doubles it so it will be 20 and

20% of 20 will be 4

20-4 = 16km

Now Alex operations

(10/5 )*8 = 2*8= 16 km

In both cases the answer will be the same

1 mile = 1.60034 km

Now 10 miles = 16.00 34 km

which is the same as above.

Both the processes are correct.

Find the coordinates of the point which divides the line segment joining the points (4, -3) and (8,5) in the ratio 3:1 internall
Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

The coordinates of the point that divides the line internally in the given ratio is (7,3)

Step-by-step explanation:

To find this coordinates, we use the in renal division formula

we have this as;

(x,y) =( nx1 + mx2)/(m + n) , (ny1 + my2)/(m + n)

(x1,y1) = (4,-3)

(x2,y2) = (8,5)

(m,n) = (3,1)

So, substituting these values, we have ;

(x,y) = (1(4) + 3)8))/(3 + 1) , (1(-3) + 3)5)/(1 + 3)

(x,y) = (28)/4, (12/4)

(x,y) = (7,3)
