OpenStudy (dangerousjesse):

4:1 ratio with X and Y being 1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so whats m

OpenStudy (anonymous):

like how do u find m

OpenStudy (dangerousjesse):

You'll divide the line into five parts \[Y(-1,2)\]\[\frac{- X(10,3) }{ 9,5 }\]

OpenStudy (dangerousjesse):

\[9,5=\sqrt81+25\]

OpenStudy (dangerousjesse):

So (9/5,1) is one fifth of the length

OpenStudy (dangerousjesse):

So \[(\frac{36}{5},4)+x=M\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

then what
