Find the coordinates of the point 7/10 of the way from A to B. a=(-3,-6) b=(12,4)

Artemon [7]

Answer:

The coordinates of $M$ are $x = \frac{15}{2}$ and $y = 1$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

Let be $A = (-3,-6)$ and $B = (12, 4)$ endpoints of segment AB and $M$ a point located 7/10 the way from A to B. Vectorially, we get this formula:

$\overrightarrow {AM} = \frac{7}{10}\cdot \overrightarrow {AB}$

$\vec M - \vec A = \frac{7}{10}\cdot (\vec B - \vec A)$

By Linear Algebra we get the location of $M$ :

$\vec M = \vec A + \frac{7}{10}\cdot (\vec B - \vec A)$

$\vec M = \vec A +\frac{7}{10}\cdot \vec B - \frac{7}{10}\cdot \vec A$

$\vec M = \frac{3}{10}\cdot \vec A + \frac{7}{10}\cdot \vec B$

If we know that $\vec A = (-3,-6)$ and $\vec B = (12, 4)$ , then:

$\vec M = \frac{3}{10}\cdot (-3,-6)+\frac{7}{10}\cdot (12,4)$

$\vec M = \left(-\frac{9}{10},-\frac{9}{5} \right)+\left(\frac{42}{5} ,\frac{14}{5} \right)$

$\vec M =\left(-\frac{9}{10}+\frac{42}{5} ,-\frac{9}{5}+\frac{14}{5} \right)$

$\vec M = \left(\frac{15}{2} ,1\right)$

The coordinates of $M$ are $x = \frac{15}{2}$ and $y = 1$ .

Evaluate f(x)= 1.8 X 2^x for x=6 <br><br> A: 115.2<br><br> B: 2176.78<br><br> C: 21.6

attashe74 [19]

By substitution
f(6) = 1.8×2^(6)
= 1.8×64
= 115.2
