Step-by-step explanation:
A (-3 , 4) and C ( 2 , -6 ) and ratio of AB : AC is 4:5
now , let AB be 4x and AC be 5x such that
AC = AB + BC
AC - AB = BC
5x - 4x = BC
x = BC
ratio of AB : BC = 4:1
by using section formula
( mx2 + nx1 / m+n , my2 + ny1 / m+n )
where m = 4 and n = 1
B = ( 4×2 + 1×-3 / 4+1. ,. 4× -6. + 1× 4 / 4+1 )
B = ( 8 -3 / 5. ,. -24 + 4 / 5)
B = ( 5/5. ,. -20/5 )
B = ( 1. , -4 )
Answer:
Option A. y = –2x + 27
Step-by-step explanation:
y – 7 = ½(x + 2)
We'll begin by calculating the slope of the equation above. This can be obtained as follow:
y – 7 = ½(x + 2)
Clear bracket
y – 7 = ½x + 1
Rearrange
y = ½x + 1 + 7
y = ½x + 8
Comparing
y = ½x + 8
with
y = mx + c
The slope (m) = ½
Next, we shall determine the slope (m2) of the equation perpendicular to the line. This can be obtained as follow:
For perpendicularity,
m1 × m2 = –1
m1 = ½
½ × m2 = –1
m2 /2 = –1
Cross multiply
m2 = 2 × –1
m2 = –2
Therefore, the slope of the equation perpendicular to the line is –2
Finally, we obtained the equation of the line as follow:
Coordinate = (6, 15)
x1 coordinate = 6
y1 coordinate = 15
Slope (m) = –2
y – y1 = m(x – x1)
y – 15 = –2(x – 6)
Clear bracket
y – 15 = –2x + 12
Rearrange
y = –2x + 12 + 15
y = –2x + 27
Therefore, the equation is y = –2x + 27
Answer:
√5 /2- 1 or 0.1180 to the nearest 10,000th.
Step-by-step explanation:
3 sin A = 2
sin A = 2/3
The adjacent ( to < A) leg of the right triangle = √(3^2 - 2^2) = √5.
So cot A = adjacent / opposite = √5 / 2
and cot A - 1 = √5/2 - 1.
