Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Original Ratio              =                  New Ratio        All these problems are done the same way. Try to conquer the language.

The original ratio = 24 inches wide / 12 inches tall

Shawna's new ratio = you don't know / 2 inches in height (or tall)

Call what you don't know = x

24/12 = x / 2                        Cross multiply

12 * x = 24 * 2                     Combine the right

12 * x = 48                           Divide by 12

12x/12 = 48/12

x = 4

So the new height is 4 inches.

Segment CD has point E located on it such that CE:ED = 3:5. If the endpoints are located at C(5, -6) and D(11,18) then what are
wlad13 [49]

Answer:

E(29/4,3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Segment CD has point E located on it such that CE:ED = 3:5

The coordinates of C and D are (5, -6) and (11,18) respectively.

We need to find the coordinates of E. Let the coordinates are (x,y). Using section formula to find it as follows :

(x,y)=(\dfrac{m_1x_2+m_2x_1}{m_1+m_2},\dfrac{m_1y_2+m_2y_1}{m_1+m_2})\\\\(x,y)=(\dfrac{3(11)+5(5)}{3+5},\dfrac{3(18)+5(-6)}{3+5})\\\\=\dfrac{29}{4},3

So, the coordinates of E are (29/4,3).
