The coordinates of the point that makes the division in the given ratio is (0,3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to find the point on the line segment that divides the line segment in the ratio 1:2

We simply use the internal division formula

That would be;

(x,y) = (nx1 + mx2)/(m + n) , (ny1 + my2)/(m + n)

m = 1 and n = 2

(x1,y1) = (4,9)

(x2,y2) = (-8,-9)

Substituting these values into the formula, we have;

2(4) + 1(-8)/(1 + 2) , 2(9) + 1(-9)/(2 + 1)

= (8-8)/3 , (18-9)/3

= (0,3)

answer: 20

step-by-step explanation:

we have three similar triangles, because each has a right angle and shares an angle.   let's write the angles in order: opposite to short leg, long leg, hypotenuse.

cab similar to bad similar to cbd

or as ratios,

ca: ab: cb = ba: ad: bd = cb: bd: cd

we also know

ac = ad + cd

(ad+cd): ab: cb = ba: ad: bd = cb: bd: cd

(ad+cd)/cb=cb/cd

we have cb=6, ad=5 and seek x=cd.

we reject the negative root and conclude x=4

answer: 4
