The 1:3 ratio means that the distance from A to the point is 1/4 of the distance from A to B.
The difference of y-coordinates is 10-8 = 2. 1/4 of that is 2·1/4 = 1/2, so the point of interest will have y-coordinate 8 + 1/2 = 8 1/2. This apparently corresponds to the first selection:
... (6 1/2, 8 1/2)
Answer:
I think you forgot part of the question
Step-by-step explanation:
1. alternate interior angles
2. angle 1 ≈ angle 2
So,
2x+5=x+59
-x. -x
x+5=59
-5 -5
x=54!!
3. Plug in the value of x into the expression for angle 2
54+59=113
Angle 2=113°
D. Three less than five times the quantity of a number plus two.
