-2

Step-by-step explanation:

In the picture attached, the problem is shown.

The formula you have to use is:

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

where x1 is the x-coordinate of the origin of the line segment (point J here), x2 is the x-coordinate of the end of the line segment (point K here), and m and n are from the ratio m:n.

In this case:

Replacing them into the equation, we get:

x = 2/(2+5)(8 - (-6)) + -6

x = -2

10/60

step-by-step explanation:

if you divide 10 by 60 the answer is 0.166666 while if you divide or solve the other problems it equals 0.6
