Answer:

R = (- 3.5, - 7 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the Section formula

x_{R} = \frac{3(4)+5(-8)}{3+5} = \frac{12-40}{8} = \frac{-28}{8} = - 3.5

y_{R} = \frac{3(-2)+5(-10)}{3+5} = \frac{-6-50}{8} = \frac{-56}{8} = - 7

Thus coordinates of R = (- 3.5, - 7 )

Answer: (-0.8, -5.2)

Step-by-step explanation:

The coordinates of point P(x,y) divides a line segment with endpoints A(a,b) and B(c,d) in ration m:n is given by :-

x=\dfrac{mc+na}{m+n}\ ;\ n=\dfrac{md+nb}{m+n}

Given : Point R lies on the directed line segment from L (-8,-10) to M (4,-2) and partitions the segment in the ratio 3 to 5.

i.e. \dfrac{m}{m+n}=\dfrac{3}{3+2}

i.e. m:n = 3:2

The coordinates of R divide directed line segment from L (-8,-10) to M (4,-2) in ratio 3:2 will be :-

x=\dfrac{3(4)+2(-8)}{3+2}\ ;\ y=\dfrac{3(-2)+2(-10)}{3+2}\\\\ x=\dfrac{12-16}{5}\ ;\ y=\dfrac{-6-20}{5}\\\\ x=-0.8\ ;\ y=-5.2

The coordinates of R= (-0.8, -5.2)

16x^2-24x+7=0 equation and/or inequalities
Ivenika [448]
It is quadratic equation.
First we have find delta given by formula: delta=b^{2}-4ac
where our 
a=16
b=-24
c=7
so, delta=24^{2}-4*16*7=128
Because delta is positive, there is real results.
Now we can use next formula x=\frac{-b+ \sqrt{delta} }{2a}
, to find roots (results, 2 results because its quadratic equation and delta is greater than 0)
x1=\frac{24+ \sqrt{128} }{2*16} = \frac{3+ \sqrt{2} }{4}
x2=\frac{24- \sqrt{128} }{2*16} = \frac{3- \sqrt{2} }{4}

What is the domain of validity for csctheta =start fraction 1 over sine theta end fraction? (1 point) all real numbers all real
dem82 [27]
We know the following relationship:

csc(\theta)=\frac{1}{sin(\theta)}

The domain of a function are the inputs of the function, that is, a function f is a relation that assigns to each element x in the set A exactly one element in the set B. The set A is the domain (or set of inputs) of the function and the set B contains the range (or set of outputs).Then applying this concept to our function csc(\theta) we can write its domain as follows:

1. D<span>omain of validity for csc(\theta):
</span>
D: \{\theta \in R/ sin(\theta) \neq 0 \} \\ In words: All \ \theta \ that \ are \ real \ values \ except \ those \ that \ makes \ sin(\theta)=0 
 
When:

sin(\theta)=0?

when:

\theta=..., -2\pi,-\pi,0,\pi,\2pi,3pi,...,k\pi

where k is an integer either positive or negative. That is:

sin(k\theta)=0 \ for \ k=...,-2,-1,0,1,2,3,...

To match this with the choices above, the answer is:

<span>"All real numbers except multiples of \pi"

</span>
2. which identity is not used in the proof of the identity 1+cot^{2}(\theta)=csc^{2}(\theta):

This identity can proved as follows:

sin^2{\theta}+cos^{2}(\theta)=1 \ Dividing \ by \ sin^{2}(\theta) \\ \\ \therefore \frac{sin^2{\theta}}{sin^{2}(\theta)}+\frac{cos^{2}(\theta)}{sin^{2}(\theta)}=\frac{1}{sin^{2}(\theta)} \\ \\ \therefore 1+cot^{2}(\theta)=csc^{2}(\theta)

The identity that is not used is as established in the statement above:

<span>"1 +cos squared theta over sin squared theta= csc2theta"

Written in mathematical language as follows:

</span>\frac{1+cos^{2}(\theta)}{sin^{2}(\theta)}=csc^{2}(\theta)<span>


</span>
