The equation of the line, in standard form, that is the perpendicular bisector of the segment with endpoints (-1,6) and (5, 5) is <u>12x - 2y = 13</u>.

In the question, we are asked to indicate the equation of the line, in standard form, that is the perpendicular bisector of the segment with endpoints (-1,6) and (5, 5).

The slope of the line with endpoints (-1,6) and (5,5), can be calculated as:

m = (6 - 5)/(-1 - 5) = 1/(-6) = -1/6.

Thus, the slope of the perpendicular bisector = -1/m = -1/(-1/6) = 6.

The perpendicular bisector passes through the midpoint of the line with endpoints (-1,6) and (5,5), which can be calculated as:

(x₁, y₁) = ( {(-1 + 5)/2},{(6 + 5)/2} ),

or, (x₁,y₁) = (2, 11/2).

Thus, the required equation can be shown as:

(y - 11/2) = 6(x - 2), which can be shown in the standard form as follows:

(2y - 11)/2 = 6x - 12,

or, 2y - 11 = 12x - 24,

or, 12x - 2y = 13.

Thus, the equation of the line, in standard form, that is the perpendicular bisector of the segment with endpoints (-1,6) and (5, 5) is <u>12x - 2y = 13</u>.

Hello! When dividing fractions, you multiply by the reciprocal of the second fraction. So 2/3 divided by 1/2 would be 2/3 times 2.

As you can see, the first fraction would be the same. Therefore, a will be 4. 5 and 6 will swap, so b will be 6 and c will be 5.

Therefore, our answer is D) a=4, b=6, c=5

I hope this helps!

The probability of an event is 3/10 . What are the odds of the same event?
kozerog [31]

Answer:

D. \frac{3}{7}

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that the probability of an event is 3/10.  

To find the odds of the same event we will use formula:

\text{Odds of an event}=\frac{\text{Probability of the event}}{\text{1-Probability of the event}}

\text{Odds of the event}=\frac{\frac{3}{10}}{1-\frac{3}{10}}

\text{Odds of the event}=\frac{\frac{3}{10}}{\frac{1*10}{10}-\frac{3}{10}}

\text{Odds of the event}=\frac{\frac{3}{10}}{\frac{10-3}{10}}

\text{Odds of the event}=\frac{\frac{3}{10}}{\frac{7}{10}}

Dividing a fraction with another fraction is same as multiplying the 1st fraction by the reciprocal of second fraction.

\text{Odds of the event}=\frac{3}{10}\times \frac{10}{7}

\text{Odds of the event}=\frac{3}{7}

Therefore, the odds of the same event is \frac{3}{7} and option D is the correct choice.

Y=5x+2 <br> 4x-y=0<br> is (2,12) a solution of the system?
Svetach [21]

Answer:

The point (2,12) is not a solution of the system

see the explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

y=5x+2 ----> equation A

4x-y=0 ----> equation B

Solve the system by elimination

Adds equation A and equation B

y=5x+2\\4x-y=0\\------\\y+4x-y=5x+2+0\\4x=5x+2\\5x-4x=-2\\x=-2

Find the value of y

substitute the value of x in the equation A

y=5(-2)+2=-8

The solution of the system is the point (-2,-8)

The system has only one solution, because the intersection point both lines is only one point

therefore

The point (2,12) is not a solution of the system
