Remark
There are two formulas for doing this. I'll use the one that does not involve the slope. I think it will be easier for you to understand.
Step One
Decide which point is (x1,y1)
Since point P is 2/5 the way up from point A, we will call (x1,y1) point A
Step Two
Write the givens.
Point(A) = (-2,-3)
Point(B) = (3,2)
Step Three
Write the formula
x1 + ratio*(x2 - x1), y1 + ratio(y2 - y1)
Sub and solve.
-2 + 2/5 *(3 - - 2) , -3 + 2/5*(2 - -3)
-2 + 2/5(5) , - 3 + 2
-2 + 2 , - 1
P = (0 , - 1) <<<<<< Answer

What is the probability of receiving a 6 or a 9 from a deck of 52 cards and an ace or a king?
Final answer:
The probability of selecting a heart or a face card from a standard deck of cards is approximately 42.31%, which is significantly higher than the probability of selecting just a heart suit face card, which is about 5.77%.
Explanation:
To calculate the probability of selecting a heart or a face card, we first need to count the number of favorable outcomes. There are 13 hearts in a deck of cards and 12 face cards (Jacks, Queens, and Kings, with 3 in each suit). However, there are overlap cards that are both hearts and face cards (Jack, Queen, King of Hearts), which amount to 3 cards. We must subtract these to avoid double counting. So, the formula to find the total number of favorable outcomes is:
Favorable outcomes = Total hearts + Total face cards - Overlap of hearts and face cards
Favorable outcomes = 13 (hearts) + 12 (face cards) - 3 (heart face cards) = 22
Next, we calculate the probability:
P(A) = Favorable outcomes / Total number of cards
P(A) = 22 / 52 ≈ 0.4231 or 42.31%
This is the probability of selecting a heart or a face card from a standard deck. Comparing this to the probability of selecting a heart suit face card (which is 3/52 or about 5.77%), it is clear that selecting a heart or a face card is much more likely.
Therefore, the probability of selecting either a heart or a face card is less than the probability of drawing only heart-suit face cards, since the number of favorable outcomes for the latter is smaller.

A rope stretches directly depending on the load it must carry. If a load of 8 pounds stretches the rope 9.6 inches, the constant of proportionality is equal to:
8(9.6)
8/9.6
9.6/8
"Our proportionality constant would be how much the rope stretches versus the weight being hung. This is set up by simply dividing the two numbers.
9.6 inches / 8 pounds
or for every pound hung, it will stretch 1.2 inches so we know if it stretches 6 inches, we can set up an equation 6 inches = 1.2 [inches/pound] * pounds solve for weight to get 5 pounds being hung from the rope."
Answer: 9.6 inches / 8 pounds
Step-by-step explanation: I got it right
The perimeter of the following rectangle is 40 inches. What is the length of w?
Bottom: 14 in.
Side: Unknown
2.9 in.
6 in.
12 in.
26 in.
6 inches is the answer
P= 2( L+W)
Answer: 6 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: The perimeter of the rectangle = 40 inches
Let the unknown side be w.
And the bottom side l=14 in.
We know that the perimeter of rectangle is given by :-
[tex]\text{Perimeter}=2(l+w)\\\Rightarrow40=2(14+w)\\\Rightarrow\frac{40}{2}=14+w\\\\Rightarrow20=14+w\\\Rightarrow\ w=20-14)\\\Rightarrow w=6\ in.[/tex]
Hence, the the length of w = 6 inches.

Which expression is equivalent to 17x − 8x + 2 and why?
2 − 9x, because (17x − 8x) + 2 = −9x + 2 = 2 − 9x
2 + 9x, because (17x − 8x) + 2 = 9x + 2 = 2 + 9x
11x, because 17x − 8x + 2 = 9x + 2 = 11x
7x, because 17x − 8x + 2 = 17x − 10x = 7x
Answer:
2 + 9x, beacuse (17x - 8x) + 2 = 9x+2
Step-by-step explanation:

A number line contains points Q, R, S, and T. Point Q is on the coordinate 24, R is on the coordinate 28, S is on the coordinate 29, T is on the coordinate 42. Find the probability that a point chosen at random on QT is on ST. Express your answer as a percent.
25%
42.2%
50%
72.2%
Answer:
The correct option is 4.
Step-by-step explanation:
It is given that Point Q is on the coordinate 24, R is on the coordinate 28, S is on the coordinate 29, T is on the coordinate 42.
Total numbers lie on line QT is
[tex]42-24=18[/tex]
The numbers lie on line ST is
[tex]42-29=13[/tex]
The probability that a point chosen at random on QT is on ST is
[tex]P=\frac{\text{The numbers lie on line ST}}{\text{Total numbers lie on line QT}}\times 100[/tex]
[tex]P=\frac{13}{18}}\times 100[/tex]
[tex]P=72.222\approx 72.2\%[/tex]
The probability that a point chosen at random on QT is on ST is 72.2%. Therefore option 4 is correct.

Using Pythagorean inequalities, determine which set of the given three sides produces an obtuse triangle. A. 4, 5, 6 B. 5, 13, 19 C. 12, 14, 25 D. 21, 72, 75
Answer:
Obtuse triangle sets
B. 5, 13, 19
C. 12, 14, 25
Step-by-step explanation:
The Pythagorean inequality for the sides of the triangle to be an obtuse:
[tex]a^2 + b^2 < c^2[/tex], where a, b and c are the sides of the triangle.
The other Pythagorean inequalities are:
[tex]a^2 + b^2 > c^2[/tex], for Acute triangle
[tex]a^2 + b^2 = c^2[/tex], for Right triangle
Now let's check which set of the given sets satisfy the above inequality.
Option A
4, 5, 6
Here a = 4, b = 5 and c = 6
[tex]4^2 + 5^2 < 6^2\\16 + 25 < 36\\41 < 36\\[/tex]
Which is not true.
Here [tex]a^2 + b^2 > c^2[/tex], So this is Acute triangle
Option B
5, 13, 19
Here a = 5, b = 13 and c = 19
[tex]5^2 + 13^2 < 19^2\\25 + 169 < 361\\194 < 361\\[/tex]
Which is true. This is Obtuse triangle
Option C
Here a = 12, b = 14 and c = 25
[tex]12^2 + 14^2 < 25^2\\144 + 196 < 625\\340 < 625\\[/tex]
Which is true. This is obtuse triangle.
Option D
Here a = 21, b = 72 and c = 75
[tex]21^2 + 72^2 < 75^2\\441 + 5184 < 5625\\5625 < 5625\\[/tex]
Which is not true for obtuse.
Here [tex]a^2 + b^2 = c^2[/tex], for Right triangle
So this is Right triangle.
Answer:
c

find the mean absolute deviation
Answer:
(MAD) Mean Absolute Deviation: 3.28
Step-by-step explanation:
Mean: 4 + 5 + 8 + 10 + 15 = 42/5 = 8.4
8.4 - 4 = 4.4
8.4 - 5 = 3.4
8.4 - 8 = 0.4
8.4 - 10 = 1.6
8.4 - 15 = 6.6
Mean Absolute Deviation: 4.4 + 3.4 + 0.4 + 1.6 + 6.6 = 16.4/5 = 3.28

Robert buys 3 pounds of bananas at $0.50 per pound and 3 pounds of apples at $1.00 per pound. Which of the following expressions represents the total cost of the fruit he bought (in dollars
Answer:
The answer is $3(0.50+1.00)
Step-by-step explanation:
Robert bought 3 pounds of bananas at $0.50 per pound which can be expressed as:
[tex]3*0.50[/tex]
And 3 pounds of apples at $1.00 per pound which can be expressed as:
[tex]3*1.00[/tex]
As Robert bought the apples and bananas, you can add both expressions:
[tex]3*0.50 + 3*1.00[/tex]
This expression can be factorized as:
[tex]3(0.50+1.00)[/tex]
or
[tex]3(1.50)[/tex]
Both expressions will give you the same result, which is $4.50.
