NEED ANSWER ASAP George decides to walk from his home to Tina’s house down the street. On the way, he stops at the gas station to get some snacks. He begins at (2,3), ends at (9,17), and stops at the gas station at (x, y). If the part to part ratio is 3:4, what is the coordinates of the gas station? (Type out as a coordinate)

x = 12 and y = 23

So what we are saying is that the coordinates of Tina’s house down the street is (12,23)

Step-by-step explanation:

What this question is actually telling us is that the gas station divides the segment from George’s home to Tina’s house in the ratio 3 to 7; we now want to find the coordinates of Tina’s house which is the end of the line segment.

Mathematically, to get this division, we would have employed the use of the internal division formula;

Coordinates of gas station = (mx2 + nx1)/(m + n) , (my2 + ny1)/(m + n)

m = 3 , n = 1

(x1,y1) = (2,3)

(x2,y2) = (x,y)

So therefore;

(5,9) = 3(x) + 7(2)/3+7) , 3(y) + 7(3)/(3+ 7)

(5,9) = (3x + 14)/10, (3y + 21)/10

Hence;

(3x + 14)/10 = 5

3x + 14 = 10(5)

3x + 14 = 50

3x = 50-14

3x = 36

x = 36/3

x = 12

Also;

(3y + 21)/10 = 9

3y + 21 = 9(10)

3y + 21 = 90

3y = 90-21

3y = 69

y = 69/3

y = 23

x=17

step-by-step explanation:

solve 3x-24=x+10

then that makes it 2x=34 because you subtract an x from both sides to get rid of the one on the right, and then you add 24 to both sides to get rid of the 24 on the left

divide by both sides by 2 to get your answer so that you can get your answer
