Question 11063: An Exact Point from Qualified Convex Weights

Original question and givens

Use a finite nonempty ordered vector list and aligned exact rational weights. Convex weights may be zero but must be nonnegative and sum exactly to 1, not merely approximately. A convex-combination witness establishes its weighted point, not unique coordinates without separate affine independence. vectors=[[0, 0], [2, 2]], weights=[13/15, 2/15]. Require qualified weights. Give (original vectors,normalized aligned weights,weighted point). Use exact rational arithmetic, reduce fractions to positive denominators and omit /1 for integer outputs.

Definition and scope

Use the original question domain, assumptions and cited MKO definitions. This item has second-context mathematical and bilingual review, with the model, answer and every arithmetic step independently recomputed from the original parameters; the source question remains a candidate.

Step-by-step derivation

convex weights:raw rational pairs=[[13, 15], [2, 15]]

convex weights:normalized=[13/15, 2/15]

convex weights total := sum(13/15, 2/15)

convex weights total = 1

convex weights:weights=[13/15, 2/15];sum=1

nonnegative=Yes;total_one=Yes;qualified=Yes

convex point:ordered vectors=[[0, 0], [2, 2]];aligned weights=[13/15, 2/15]

dimension=2;preserve duplicates and order

convex point coordinate0 term0 := mul(13/15, 0)

convex point coordinate0 term0 = 0

convex point coordinate0 term1 := mul(2/15, 2)

convex point coordinate0 term1 = 4/15

convex point coordinate0 sum := sum(0, 4/15)

convex point coordinate0 sum = 4/15

convex point coordinate1 term0 := mul(13/15, 0)

convex point coordinate1 term0 = 0

convex point coordinate1 term1 := mul(2/15, 2)

convex point coordinate1 term1 = 4/15

convex point coordinate1 sum := sum(0, 4/15)

convex point coordinate1 sum = 4/15
