Answer:

All you need to do is subtract the coefficient.

Step-by-step explanation:

For example a minus b is c. So this is simply going to be c times d to the e you can do that if these two are the same.

The line segment joining the points ( 3,-4) and (1,2) is trisected at the points P and Q . If the coordinates of P and Q are (p

sdas [7]

Answer:

P = 7/3 and q = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

The endpoints of the segment are, (3, -4) and (1, 2)

The points that trisect the given points are P and Q with coordinates (p, -2) and (5/3, q) respectively

Therefore, we have;

The first point of the trisection cuts 1/3 of the length from one point and the second point of the trisection cuts 2/3 of the length from the same point

The coordinates of P or Q = (3 - (3 - 1)/3, -4 - (-4 - 2)/3) = (7/3 , -2)

Therefore, given that the y-coordinate value of the derived point coincides with the y-coordinate value of the point P, (p, -2) and there is only one point with x = -2 on the line, we have that the coordinate of the point P is (p, -2) = (7/3 , -2)

∴ P = 7/3

Similarly we have the second point of the trisection, Q, given as follows;

We are already given the x-coordinate value of the point Q as the 5/3 in (5/3, q)

Point Q = (5/3, q) = (3 - 2×(3 - 1)/3, -4 - 2×(-4 - 2)/3) = (5/3 , 0)

Point Q = (5/3, q) = (5/3 , 0)

∴ q = 0.

IS 250% of 44 over 100

Anna007 [38]

Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

44 is 100%

100% + 100% + 50% = 250%

44 + 44 + 22 = More than 100

Bobby wants to go on a school trip that will cost him $250. He comes up with an equation that represents how much he needs to sa

monitta

Yes, Bobby will have enough money if he saves for 9 weeks. You can find this through either substituting w for 9 in the equation, or solving the equation itself.

Substituting:

$25(9)+30$
Substitute w for 9.

$225+30$
Simplify.

$225+30=255$
Solve.

255 is greater than 250, so yes, he will have enough money saved.

Solving the equation:

$25w+30=250$
Original Equation

$25w=220$
Subtract 30 from both sides.

$w=8.8$
Divide both sides by 25.

The number of weeks he needs is 8.8. When rounding it up, you get 9.
