What are the x and y coordinates of point p on the directed line segment from a to b such that p is 2/3 the length of the line segment from a to b?

step-by-step explanation:

first look at the difference in x coordinates. the difference is -15 and 2/3 of -15 is -10 meaning p is -10 from a in terms of x coordinates.

then look at the difference in y coordinates. the difference is 15 and 2/3 of 15 is 10.

the x coordinate of p is 9-10 = -1

the y coordinate of p is -8+10 = 2

coordinates of p are (1,2)

yes because there is exactly one y value for every x value

for function there can't be more than one value for every x value

hi there!

step-by-step explanation:

a roof pitch is basically for every inch rise there is 12 inches run.

the height of the roof is also known as the rafter.

formula: rafter^2 = rise^2 + run^2

rafter^2 = 5^2 + 12^2

rafter^2 = 25 + 144

rafter ^2 = 169"^2

the height of the roof from the lowest point to the highest point is 169"^2.

hope this : )
