What are the coordinates of the point on the directed line segment from (-8, -10)(−8,−10) to (6, -6)(6,−6) that partitions the segment into a ratio of 3 to 1?

Total parts = 3 + 1 = 4

The point would be 3/4 away from the first point.

On the x axis from -8 to 6 is 14 units

On the y axis from -10 to -6 is 4 units

14 x 3/4 = 10.5

4 x 3/4 = 3

-8 + 10.5 = 2.5

-10 + 3 = -7

The point would be at (2.5,-7)

x=17

step-by-step explanation:

solve 3x-24=x+10

then that makes it 2x=34 because you subtract an x from both sides to get rid of the one on the right, and then you add 24 to both sides to get rid of the 24 on the left

divide by both sides by 2 to get your answer so that you can get your answer
