Using proportions, it is found that the coordinates of the desired point are (2,2).

  • The first point is A(-4, -1).
  • The second point is B(6, 4).
  • The desired point is C(x,y).

The point C partitions the segment AB into a ratio of 3 to 2, hence:

C - A = \frac{3}{5}(B - A)

This proportion is applied using <u>both the x and y coordinates</u> of the points, hence:

x - (-4) = \frac{3}{5}[6 - (-4)]

x + 4 = 6

x = 2

y - (-1) = \frac{3}{5}[4 - (-1)]

y + 1 = 3

y = 2

The coordinates of the desired point are (2,2).

Write the equations for 74,2 and 49
serious [3.7K]

Answer:

x+10y=94

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming we want to find the equation (74,2)  and (4,9)

This is an equation of a straight.

Let this equation be y=mx+b.

m=\frac{9-2}{4-74} =-\frac{1}{10}

We substitute the slope  and (4,9) to get:

y-9=-\frac{1}{10}(x-4)

We  rewrite in standard form to get:

x+10y=94

Use the drop down menus to describe the relationship between the number of teaspoons and number of tablespoon
Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

From the given picture we can see that , 3 teaspoons = 1 table spoon.....(1)

or 3t=b..(2)

6 teaspoon= 2 tablespoon or 6t=2b

9 teaspoon= 3 table spoon or 9t=3b

Therefore the ratio of teaspoon to tablespoon t:b= 3:1...........(from (1))

Now, 1 tea spoon=\frac{1}{3}\ tablespoon..............[divide 3 on both sides of (1)]

or t=\frac{1}{3}b

The equation to show the relation between teaspoons and table spoon is given by (2)

3t=b

Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer:

\boxed{y = 3}

Step-by-step explanation:

The solution to 4p + 2 &lt; 2p + 5)​
Georgia [21]

After solving 4p + 2 < 2p + 5 we get p

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to solve

4p + 2 < 2p + 5

Solving

4p + 2 < 2p + 5

Subtract 2 from both sides:

4p + 2-2 < 2p + 5-2\\4p

Subtract 2p from both sides

4p

Divide both sides by 2p

\frac{2p}{2}

So, after solving 4p + 2 < 2p + 5 we get p
