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>.

erastova [34]

Answer:

A, is the answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

If you take two points and then find the slope between them you'll find that it is 1.5.

You could also make a T-chart or plug in the x coordinates into each possible equation and see which one matches the corresponding y coordinate.

The odds of winning a rifle are 1:9 the probability of winning a carnival game is 0.15 does the raffle or the carnival game give
Lilit [14]

Answer:

Hence the carnival game gives you better chance of winning.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the event of win be given by 1/10 in the game of rifle then the event of loose is given by 9/10

the

Odds in favor of a game are given by  = P(Event)/ 1- P(Event)

Odds in favor of winning a rifle are given by = 1/10/ 1- 1/10

                                                                         =1/10/9/10

                                                                          =1/9

                                                                             = 0.111

The probability of winning aa rifle game is 0.111

The probability of winning the carnival game is 0.15

Comparing the two probabilities   0.111:0.15

The probability of  winning carnival game is greater than winning a rifle game

0.15>0.11

Hence the carnival game gives you better chance of winning.

The ratio of coloured papers to wight papers is 3:8.If there are 48 wight papers, how many coloured papers are there?
mestny [16]

Answer:  The total number of colored papers is 18.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The ratio of coloured papers to wight papers is 3:8.

Let total number of colored papers = 3x

and total number of wight papers = 8x

Since, there are 48 wight papers , then

8x=48

\Rightarrow\ x=6

Now , number of colored papers = 3(6)=18

Hence, the total number of colored papers is 18.
