find the coordinates of the point on the directed segment from (3,2) to (6,8) that divides it into a ratio of 1:3.

  (3.75, 3.5)

Step-by-step explanation:

The weighting factors for the weighted average of the end points are the reverse of the length ratios.

For a 1 : 3 split, the first point is weighted by a factor of 3; the second point is weighted by a factor of 1. The weighted sum is divided by the total of the weights.

  (3(3, 2) +1(6, 8))/(3+1) = (9+6, 6+8)/4 = (3.75, 3.5)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Point A(3, 2)

Point B(6, 8)

Point C lies on segment line AB and divides AB into a ratio of 1 : 3

Solve for:

Coordinate of C

Solution:

Denote the coordinate of origin O(0, 0)

Point A(3, 2) => Vector OA(3 - 0, 2 - 0) or OA(3, 2)

Point B(6, 8) => Vector OB(6 - 0, 8 - 0) or OB(6, 8)

=> Vector AB = Vector OB - Vector OA = (6 - 3, 8 - 2) or vector AB(3, 6)

Point C lies on segment line AB and divides AB into a ratio of 1 : 3

=> Vector AC = (1/3) Vector CB, or

    AC/CB = 1/3

=> AC/(AC + CB) = 1/(1 + 3)

=> AC/AB = 1/4

=> AC = AB/4

=>  Vector AC = (1/4) Vector AB  = ((1/4)*3, (1/4)*6) = (0.75, 1.5)

=> Vector OC = Vector OA + Vector AC = (3 + 0.75, 2 + 1.5) = (3.75, 3.5)

=> C(3.75, 3.5)

Option d is correct!

step-by-step explanation:

given perimeter: 28cm

length: 9cm

atp,

2(l+w)=p of the reactangle

2(9+x)=28

18+2x=28

2x=28-18

x=10/2

x=5

therefore width is 5 cm

the answer would be 1 1/72

step-by-step explanation:

you can rewrite the equation by separating the parts and then solving individually:

10-9=1

1/8 - 1/9=

find l c d and then combine:

1 1/72
