What are the coordinates of the point on the directed line segment from (1,−6) to (8,8) that partitions the segment into a ratio of 4 to 3?

Answers

Answer 1

The coordinate of the point  on the directed line segment that partitions the segment into a ratio of 4 to 3 is (29/7,50/7)

How to determine the coordinate at the partition?

The given parameters are:

A = (-1,6)

B = (8,8)

Ratio, m : n = 4 : 3

The coordinate at the partition is calculated using:

[tex](x,y) = \frac{1}{m + n} * (mx_2 + nx_1,my_2 + ny_1)[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex](x,y) = \frac{1}{4 + 3} * (4 * 8 + 3 * -1,4 *8 + 3 * 6)[/tex]

Evaluate

[tex](x,y) = \frac{1}{7} * (29,50)[/tex]

Evaluate the product

(x,y) = (29/7,50/7)

Hence, the coordinate of the point is (29/7,50/7)

Mrs. Law’s seventh grade class volunteers for two days at an animal shelter. Each day, 30% of students will be assigned to help groom animals, 50% will be assigned to walk animals, and 20% will be assigned to clean the kennels. Michaela designs a simulation to determine how likely it is that she will be assigned to walk animals both days. She assigns digits as follows:• 0, 1, 2 5 Grooming• 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 5 Walking• 8, 9 5 Cleaning Then she generates the following sets of random numbers for her simulation. 2, 9 5, 2 3, 9 0, 1 8, 3 0, 5 0, 5 8, 3 6, 8 4, 7 7, 4 1, 5 Based on the results of the simulation, what is the probability that Michaela will walk animals on: a. both days? b. one day only? c. at least one day?

Answers

Michaela will walk the dogs B only 1 day only

Based on the results of the simulation, the probability that Michaela will walk animals on:

a. both days = 1/6

b. one day only = 2/3

c. at least one day = 5/6

What is probability?

Probability is simply how likely something is to happen.

Grooming = 0, 1, 2

Walking = 3, 4, 5, 6, 7

Cleaning = 8, 9

Based on the data generated in simulation, categorizing it into "Michael will walk animals zero days/ one day only/ both days based on the digit categorization given above.

(2,9) - zero days

(5,2) - one day

(3,9) - one day

(0,1) - zero days

(8,3) -one day

(0,5) - one day

(8,3) - one day

(6,8) - one day

(4,7) - two days

(7,4) - two days

(1,5) - one day

Probability that Michaela will walk animals both days = [tex]\frac{2}{12} = \frac{1}{6}[/tex]

Probability that Michaela will walk animals one day only = [tex]\frac{8}{12} = \frac{2}{3}[/tex]

The length of each plot is 12 yards.
The length of each plot is 8 yards.

Answers

Answer:

We have to:

"All of the plots are the same length, x"

L = x

"and the width of each plot is 5 yards less than the length"

W = x-5

"The total number of plots Liam owns is 20 more than the length of a plot"

20 + x

"the total area of all the plots Liam owns is 2,688 square yards"

A = (20 + x) * (x) * (x-5)

A = (20x - 100 + x ^ 2 -5x) * (x)

A = (x ^ 2 + 15x - 100) * (x)

2688 = (x ^ 3 + 15x ^ 2 - 100x)

x ^ 3 + 15x ^ 2 - 100x = 2688

x ^ 3 + 15x ^ 2 - 100x - 2688 = 0

Answer:

*** The equation x3 + 15x2 - 100x - 2.688 = 0 can be used to find the length of each plot.

The temperature on a thermostat is set to 72∘F, but the actual temperature can vary by as much as 2∘F. Let x represent the actual temperature to create an absolute value inequality to determine the range of possible-actual temperatures.
Any help is much appreciated :)

Answers

This is your answer :)

Using an absolute value inequality, it is found that the range of temperatures is between 70ºF and 74ºF.

---------------

The absolute value function measures the distance of a point to the origin, and is defined by:

[tex]|x| = x, x \geq 0[/tex]

[tex]|x| = -x, x < 0[/tex]

---------------

The actual temperature is x, on a thermostat set to 72ºF. It can vary by as much as 2ºF, which means that the absolute value of the difference between x and 72 is at most 2, that is:

[tex]|x - 72| \leq 2[/tex]

Solving the inequality:

The term is both greater or equal to -2 and at most 2, thus:

[tex]x - 72 \geq >= -2[/tex]

[tex]x \geq 70[/tex]

And

[tex]x - 72 \leq 2[/tex]

[tex]x \leq 74[/tex]

Thus, the range of temperatures is between 70ºF and 74ºF.

what solutions to the following quadratic

Answers

The solutions would be x1=-6 and x2= 1

Answer:

x=-6 and x=1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

[tex]3x^2+15x-18[/tex]

Now,

[tex]3x^2+15x-18=0\\[/tex]

Using the quadratic formula where a=3, b=15, and C=-18

x=-b±[tex]\sqrt{b^2-4ac} /2a[/tex]

x=-15±[tex]{\sqrt{15^2-4(3)(-18} } /2(3)[/tex]

x=-15±[tex]\sqrt{441} /6[/tex]

the discriminant [tex]b^2-4ac>0[/tex]

So, there are two real roots

x=-15±21/6

[tex]x=\frac{6}{6} \\x=1\\x=\frac{-36}{6} \\x=-6[/tex]

What is the original price of an item cost if the tax is 9.25% and the discount is 25% and the new price after discount and tax is $62.28?

Answers

Answer: $ 91.50.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the original price.

Since discount is applied before tax.

New price = (Original price - Discount)-Tax rate (Original price - Discount)

, where Discount = Discount rate x Original price.

Substituting values, we get

[tex]62.28=(x-0.25x)-0.0925(x-0.25x)[/tex]

[tex]62.28=(0.75x)-0.0925(0.75x)[/tex]

[tex]62.28=0.75x-0.069375x[/tex]

[tex]62.28=0.680625x[/tex]

[tex]x=\frac{62.28}{0.680625}[/tex]

[tex]x=91.50[/tex]

Hence, the original price was  $ 91.50.

Answer: 5.1x10^-4

Step 1: Rewrite number

0.00051

Step 2: Make the number smaller

0.00051 can be used in scientific notation once you move the decimal. The decimal needs to be moved so that the number is between 1 and 10. When moving the decimal 4 places to the right, the number can be left at 5.1.

Step 3: Write in standard form

The number on the left side of the multiplication side will be the number that we made smaller. In this case, it is 5.1. The exponent next to the 10 will be of how many places the decimal was moved. This is -4. The negative sign is used since the decimal was moved to the right.

The population of Canyon Falls is decreasing at the rate of 740740740 people each year while the population of Swift Creek is increasing at the rate of 1{,}5001,5001, comma, 500 people each year. Assuming these rates continue into the future, in how many years from today will the population of Swift Creek equal twice the population of Canyon Falls

Answers

Answer:

10 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Population of Canyon falls = 22500

Rate of decrease = 740 per year

Population after x years :

f(x) = 22500 - 740x ; x = number of years

Population of Swift Creek = 15200

Rate of Increase = 1500 per year

Population after x years :

f(x) = 15200 + 1500x ; x = number of years

Number of years when, population of swift creek will be twice that of Canyon falls

15200 + 1500x = 2(22500 - 740x)

15200 + 1500x = 45000 - 1480x

15200 - 45000 = - 1480x - 1500x

-29800 = - 2980x

x = 29800 / 2980

x = 10
