Question

On a number line, the directed line segment from q to s has endpoints q at –14 and s at 2. point r partitions the directed line segment from q to s in a 3:5 ratio. which expression correctly uses the formula (startfraction m over m n endfraction) (x 2 minus x 1) x 1 to find the location of point r? (startfraction 3 over 3 5 endfraction) (2 minus (negative 14)) (negative 14) (startfraction 3 over 3 5 endfraction) (negative 14 minus 2) 2 (startfraction 3 over 3 5 endfraction) (2 minus 14) 14 startfraction 3 over 3 5 endfraction (negative 14 minus 2) minus 2

Answer 1

The mathematical expression correctly uses the formula (startfraction m over m n endfraction) (x 2 minus x 1) x 1 to find the location of point r is:

" (startfraction 3 over 3 5 endfraction) (2 minus (negative 14)) (negative 14)" (Option A)
