Given line LM and point R that lies on line LM, identify the following ratios given that point R lies a/b of the way along line LM, closer to L than M.
LR:LM
RM:LM
RL:RM

I don't understand how to do this, help.

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

If point R lies of the way along line LM, closer to L than M, then

Find all needed ratios:

1.

2. By segment addition postulate,

so

3.

then

y=−9/2x+10

step-by-step explanation:

let's solve for y.

0−9x−2y=−20

step 1: add 9x to both sides.

−9x−2y+9x=−20+9x

−2y=9x−20

step 2: divide both sides by -2.

−2y

−2

=

9x−20

−2

y=

−9

2

x+10

98%
