Point A is located at (0, 4) and point B is located at (−2, −3). Find the x value for the point that is 1 over 4 the distance from point A to point B. −1.5 −2 −0.5 −1

Respuesta :

Answer: -0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

the x-value for A is 0.  

the x-value for B is -2.  

The total distance from A to B is -2.

[tex]\frac{1}{4}(-2)[/tex] = -0.5

  A + -0.5

= 0 - 0.5

=  -0.5

Answer:

-0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given two points:

A (0, 4) and B (−2, −3)

and we are to find the x-coordinate of the point which is 1/4 the distance from the point A to point B.

Since we only have to find the x coordinate, we will measure the distance of x between point A to B i.e. -2.

So, [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] × -2 = -0.5

Therefore, the x-value for the point that is 1/4 of the distance between point A and B is -0.5.
