Answer: 12

Step-by-step explanation:

OKAYOKAY so what I did was 34 - 8 = 26

then 26 - 2= 24

THEN I divided 24 in to 2 equal parts and got 12 so that means y = 12

Hope that helps!!! :}

JK in the coordinate plane has endpoints with coordinates (-4, 11) and (8,
atroni [7]

Answer:

(0, 7)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

J(-4, 11)

K(8, -1)

JP:JK = 1/3

Required:

Coordinates of P

SOLUTION:

Use the formula, (x, y) = (x_1 + k(x_2 - x_1), y_1 + k(y_2 - y_1)) to find the coordinates of point P, that partition the segment JK into the ratio 1/3.

Let,

J(-4, 11) = (x_1, y_1)

K(8, -1) = (x_2, y_2)

k = \frac{1}{3}

Thus, plug in the values as follows:

P(x, y) = (-4 + \frac{1}{3}(8 -(-4)), 11 + \frac{1}{3}(-1 - 11)

P(x, y) = (-4 + \frac{1}{3}(12), 11 + \frac{1}{3}(-12)

P(x, y) = (-4 + \frac{12}{3}, 11 + \frac{-12}{3})

P(x, y) = (-4 + 4,  11 + (-4)

P(x, y) = (0, 7)

The coordinates of point P, are (0, 7)

Whats the length in meters of CD?​
Gnesinka [82]

Answer:

The length of DC in meters is  \frac{60}{13} ⇒ A

Step-by-step explanation:

In the circle O

∵ AB passing through O

∴ AB is a diameter

∵ D is on the circle

∴ ∠ADB is an inscribed angle subtended by arc AB

∵ Arc AB is half the circle

→ That means its measure is 180°

∴ m∠ADB = \frac{1}{2} × 180° = 90°

In ΔADB

∵ m∠ADB = 90°

∵ AD = 5 m

∵ BD = 12 m

→ By using Pythagorase Theorem

∵ (AB)² = (AD)² + (DB)²

∴ (AB)² = (5)² + (12)²

∴ (AB)² = 25 + 144 = 169

→ Take square root for both sides

∴ AB = 13 m

∵ ∠ADB is a right angle

∵ DC ⊥ AB

∴ DC × AB = AD × DB

→ Substitute the lengths of AB, AD, and DB

∵ DC × 13 = 5 × 12

∴ 13 DC = 60

→ Divide both sides by 13

∴ DC = \frac{60}{13} m

∴ The length of DC in meters is  \frac{60}{13}
