Find the ratio in which the point (3,y) divides the line joining the point (9,8) and (-4,-6) hence find the value of y ​

m1:m2 = 6:7

y = 7 (Approx.)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Dividing point (3, y)

Two points (9 , 8) , (-4 , 6)

Find:

Ratio

Value of y

Computation:

X = [(m1)(x2) + (m2)(x1)] / [m1 + m2]

3 = [(m1)(-4) + (m2)(9)] / [m1 + m2]

3m1 + 3m2 = -4m1 + 9m2

7m1 = 6m2

m1 / m2 = 6 / 7

m1:m2 = 6:7

Y = [(m1)(y2) + (m2)(y1)] / [m1 + m2]

y = [(6)(6) + (7)(8)] / [6 + 7]

y = [36 + 56] / 13

y = 92 / 13

y = 7.07

y = 7 (Approx.)

x = central angle apc = measure of minor arc ac

the two angles x and 30 add to 180, so x+30 = 180 and x = 180-30 = 150. the measure of minor arc ac is 150 degrees.

what we need to do from here is find the circumference and then multiply it by x/360 since there are 360 degrees in a circle. in this case, x = 150, so x/360 = 150/360 = 15/36 = 5/12. the shortest distance along the curve from a to c is 5/12 of the distance around the entire circle (aka circumference)

c = circumference

c = pi*d

c = pi*24

c = 24pi

now multiply this by 5/12 to get

distance along minor arc ac = (5/12)*(circumference)

distance along minor arc ac = (5/12)*(24pi)

distance along minor arc ac = 10pi

the formula you can use is

l = (x/360)*pi*d

with

l = length of minor arc

x = central angle

d = diameter

which essentially is the steps we took though a bit differently.

step-by-step explanation:

descending order means to order the polynomials from the term with the largest exponent to the term with the smallest exponent.  

therefore, the correct answer is d.
