Partitioning means to find the dividing point between two points.
This is done by prorating the difference in x- and y-coordinates, and adding to the first.

We will take the first point (from A to B) as A(16,8).
The difference is B-A, i.e.
(1,3)-(16,8) = (-15,-5)
2/5 of the difference is (2/5)*(-15,-5) = (-6,-2)
Add the difference to the first coordinates (point A) gives
Point of division = (16,8)+(-6,-2) = (16-6, 8-2) = (10,6)

Answer:

<em>B: P + 0.25 P</em>

<em>D : 5/4 P</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

The price is P.

The tax is 25% of P, or 0.25P.

The total price is the price plus the tax,

P + 0.25P = P + 1/4P = 4/4P + 1/4P = 5/4P

Georgia [21]

Answer:

40,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Percentage Cost price of jewelry = 100%

Jewelery was sold at loss of 5% = (100%- 5%) = 95%

If sold at 5200 more ; profit made = 8%

That is ; (100% + 8%) = 108%

Difference between loss percentage and profit percentage = change in price sold

(108% - 95%) = 5200

13% = 5200

If ;

0.13 = 5200

The percentage cost price = 100% will be;

0.13 = 5200

1 = x

0.13x = 5200

x = 5200 / 0.13

x = 40,000
