Let A be (x1,y1) , B be (x2,y2) , P be (x,y) and the ratio be m:n

Formula is,

x=(x2*m+x1*n)/(m+n)

y=(y2*m+y1*n)/(m+n)

Geometry: Line QS bisects angle PQR. Solve for x and find the measure of angle PQR.

Kazeer [188]

It is given in the question that,

Line QS bisects angle PQR. Solve for x and find the measure of angle PQR.

And

$m \angle PQS = 2x+1
\\
m \angle RQS = 4x-15$

Since QS bisects angle PQR, therefore

$m \angle PQS = m \angle RQS$

Substituting the values, we will get

$2x+1=4x-15
\\
1+15 = 4x-2x
\\
2x = 16
\\
x = 8$

11/12−6/1q+6/5q−3/1, Combine like terms to create an equivalent expression.

Nikolay [14]

Answer: $-\frac{25}{12} -\frac{24q}{5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{11}{12} -\frac{6}{1} q+\frac{6}{5}q-\frac{3}{1}$

$\frac{11}{12} -6q+ \frac{6q}{5} -\frac{3}{1}$

$\frac{11}{12}-6q \frac{6q}{5} -3$

$(\frac{11}{12} -3)+(-6q+\frac{6q}{5} )$

$-\frac{25}{12}- \frac{24q}{5}$

Simplify three times, collect like terms and simplify again, how to collect like terms see their differences and then put them into groups, for example I put all the numbers without variables on one side and all the numbers with variables on another.

Hope this helps, now you know the answer and how to do it. HAVE A BLESSED AND WONDERFUL DAY! As well as a great rest of Black History Month! :-)
