we have

Complete the square. Remember to balance the equation by adding the same constants to each side


Rewrite as perfect squares


therefore
the answer is

Since M divides segment AB into a ratio of 5:2, we can say that M is 5/(5+2) of the length of AB. Therefore 5/7 × AB.
distance of AB = d
5/7×(x2 - x1) for the x and 5/7×(y2 - y1) for the y
5/7×(8 - 1) = 5/7 (7) = 5 for the x
and 5/7×(16 - 2) = 5/7 (14) = 10 for the y
But remember the line AB starts at A (1, 2),
so add 1 to the x: 5+1 = 6
and add 2 to the y: 10+2 = 12
Therefore the point M lies exactly at...
A) (6, 12)

Step-by-step explanation:


















Hence, the correct answer is 
Answer: A. 4.
Explanation: solving graphically
Using PEDMAS, you would divide I/2 first, then add 2 to that and subtract I from the equation. It all varies on what "i" is, however.
