Find the y value for the point that divides the line segment CD into a ratio of 4:1. Segment CD is shown. C is at 9, 6 and D is at 5, 1.

6.2
3
2.8

Y = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

For point (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) on coordinate plane if is divided in ratio of m:n.

Then point of division is given by

(n*x1+m*x2)/ m+n,  (n*y1+m*y2)/ m+n

Given point

c = (9,6)

d = (5,1)

ratio = 4:1

using the above formula , point of division is

x= (1*9+4*5)/ 4+1                     y=  (1*6+4*1)/ 4+1

x= (9+20)/ 5                             y=  (6+4)/ 5

x= 29/ 5                                    y=  10/ 5 =2

Thus, answer is y = 2

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
