Determine the equation of the perpendicular bisector of the segment with endpoints (–5, 3) and (5, 5).

Answer:

y=-5x+4

Step-by-step explanation:

First lets find the midpoint of the points (-5,3) and (5,5).

(0,4) is the midpoint by the midpoint formula.

Next we find the slope of the 2 points.

2/10 or 1/5

To find the perpendicular bisector, we need to find the negative reciprocal of the slope, which is -5x. However, we want the line to pass through (0,4), so we make the y-intercept 4.

Therfore, the answer is y=-5x+4

Solve: 2 + = 2. Give solutions in interval [0, 2)
Dovator [93]
\because\cos 2x+\sin x=\sin 2x\because\sin 2x=2\sin xcosx\because\cos 2x=\cos ^2x-\sin ^2x

→ Substitute cos 2x and sin 2x by their expressions

\therefore\cos ^2x-\sin ^2+\sin x=2\sin x\cos x

→ Subtract both sides by sin x

\cos ^2x-\sin ^2x=2\sin xcosx-\sin x

→ Take sin x as a common factor in the right side

\therefore\cos ^2x-\sin ^2x=\sin x(2\cos x-1)

From the graph, the equation has 4 solutions, the intersection points between the 2 graphs

What is the relationship between the lines with the following equations? 2x+8y=16 y=4x+7
dimulka [17.4K]
They are perpendicular because when you change 2x+8y=16 to slope intercept form it becomes y= -1/4x+2 and the slope (-1/4) is the negative reciprocal of 4, which is the slope for your other equation.

Please comment if you have any questions :)

Jika garis 4x+ay = 8 dan ay=9x + 5 saling tegak lurus,maka nilai a
barxatty [35]

We are given equations as

4x+ay=8

Firstly, we will write in slope intercept form of line

y=mx+b

4x+ay=8

Subtract both sides by 4x

4x+ay-4x=-4x+8

ay=-4x+8

now, we can divide both sides by a

y=-\frac{4}{a} x+\frac{8}{a}

we can find slope

so, we get

m_1=-\frac{4}{a}

we are given second equation as

ay=9x+5

Firstly, we will write in slope intercept form of line

y=mx+b

divide both sides by a

y=\frac{9}{a} +\frac{5}{a}

we can find slope

m_2=\frac{9}{a}

we are given both lines are perpendicular

so, the multiplication of their slopes must  be -1

m_1\times m_2=-1

we can plug values

-\frac{4}{a}\times \frac{9}{a}=-1

now, we can solve for a

\frac{36}{a^2}=-1

Multiply both sides by a

\frac{36}{a^2}\times a^2=1\times a^2

36= a^2

now, we can solve for a

we get

a=-6,a=6...............Answer

Gina has 5 2/6 feet of silver ribbon and 2 4/6 of gold ribbon. how much more silver ribbon does gina have than golden ribbon?
MrRissso [65]
To answer the question above, we are simply to subtract the length of the gold ribbon which is 2 4/6 ft from the length of the silver ribbon, 5 2/6 feet. Mathematically,
                                5 2/6 feet - 2 4/6 feet = 8/3 feet 
Therefore, Gina has 8/3 feet more of the silver ribbon than the golden ribbon.
