On a coordinate plane, a line is drawn from point J to point K. Point J is at (negative 6, negative 2) and point K is at point (8, negative 9). What is the x-coordinate of the point that divides the directed line segment from J to K into a ratio of 2:5? x = (StartFraction m Over m + n EndFraction) (x 2 minus x 1) + x 1 Help ASAP!

the formula of a slope:

from a table we have

substitute:

the slope of f(x) is -1.

the graph of funcfion g(x) is a horizontal line. the slope of a horizontal line is equal 0. therefore the slope of g(x) is 0.

-1 < 0

linear pair postulates

4

step-by-step explanation:

6 (donuts) divided by 3 is 2.

so 2/3 means 2 times 2, which is 4/6.

you get two and your friend gets four.
