The coordinates of point Q that is 2/3 of the way along the directed segment from R(-7,-2) to S(2,4) is $(\frac{-17}{5} ,\frac{2}{5} )$

Explanation :

the coordinates of point Q that is 2/3 of the way along the directed segment from R(-7,-2) to S(2,4)

Apply section formula to find coordinates of point Q

$(\frac{mx_2+nx_1}{m+n} , \frac{my_2+ny_1}{m+n} )$

Ratio m:n is 2:3 and point R is (x1,y1) , point S is (x2,y2)

Substitute all the values inside the formula

$(\frac{2(2)+3(-7)}{2+3} , \frac{2(4)+3(-2)}{2+3} )\\\\(\frac{-17}{5} ,\frac{2}{5} )$

The coordinates of point Q is $(\frac{-17}{5} ,\frac{2}{5} )$

1.) f(x)=7(b)^x-2
x=0→f(0)=7(b)^0-2=7(1)-2=7-2→f(0)=5→(x,f(x))=(0,5) Ok

2.) f(x)=-3(b)^x-5
x=0→f(0)=-3(b)^0-5=-3(1)-5=-3-5→f(0)=-8→(x,f(x))=(0,-8) No

3.) f(x)=5(b)^x-1
x=0→f(0)=5(b)^0-1=5(1)-1=5-1→f(0)=4→(x,f(x))=(0,4) No

4.) f(x)=-5(b)^x+10
x=0→f(0)=-5(b)^0+10=-5(1)+10=-5+10→f(0)=5→(x,f(x))=(0,5) Ok

5.) f(x)=2(b)^x+5
x=0→f(0)=2(b)^0+5=2(1)+5=2+5→f(0)=7→(x,f(x))=(0,7) No

Answers:
First option: f(x)=7(b)^x-2
Fourth option: f(x)=-5(b)^x+10

Answer: 5/6 ÷ 5/12 = 5/6 x [12]/[5] = [60]/30 =2

Step-by-step explanation:

The key to this is knowing that when you divide anything by a fraction, it is the same as multiplying by the reciprocal of the fraction, or the flipped version. In this case, we are given 5/6 divided by 5/12, which equals 5/6 x12/5. Then you can so normal fraction multiplication to get 60/30, which is 2.
