Answer:

(-3,3).

Step-by-step explanation:

The given points are (-6,-3) and (-1,7).

We need to find the coordinates of the point, which divides the line segment in 3:2.

Section formula: If a point divides a line in m:n, then the coordinates of point are

\left(\dfrac{mx_2+nx_1}{m+n},\dfrac{my_2+ny_1}{m+n}\right)

Using this formula, we get

\left(\dfrac{3(-1)+2(-6)}{3+2},\dfrac{3(7)+2(-3)}{3+2}\right)

\left(\dfrac{-3-12}{5},\dfrac{21-6}{5}\right)

\left(\dfrac{-15}{5},\dfrac{15}{5}\right)

\left(-3,3\right)

Therefore, the coordinates of required point are (-3,3).

choli [55]

Answer:

The z-score of a teenage with waist size 33 inch is 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Mathematically, the z-score can be calculated using the formula;

z-score = (x- mean)/SD

where mean = 29 inches , SD = 2 inches and x = 33 inch

Plugging these values, we have

z-score = (33-29)/2 = 4/2 = 2

Vaselesa [24]

Answer:H2+Br2-->2HBr

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount of atoms on the left side must be equal to the amount of atoms on the right side for each element.

On the left you got 2xH and 2xBr.

This means you must have the same amount on the right.

2HBr =2xH + 2xBr
