given triangle GHI with G(4,-3), H(-4,2) and I(2,4), find the perpendicular bisector of HI in standard form.

The perpendicular bisector would be the line that connects with the line HI at a 90 degree angle and in the mid-point. This means that we would have to find the slope of the line HI and take the opposite. The slope of HI is 1/3. This means that the slope of the perpendicular line is -3. Now we must solve for the line that crosses through the midpoint. y=mx+b we know that m=-3 and that the midpoint is at -1,3 so x=-1 and y=3. 3=(-3)-1+b. We then solve for b and find it to be 0. So the final answer is y= -3x

9 3 -3/4 -10 1/2 -1.75 least to greatest

Mazyrski [523]

-10, -1.75, -3/4, 1/2, 3, 9

_____________________________

-3/4 converts to -0.75,

and 1/2 converts to 0.5. With -10 being farthest from zero on the number line, it would be the smallest. -1.75 would be the second smallest. Keeping in mind that -3/4 converts to -0.75, it would be the 3rd smallest. 1/2, or 0.5 would be greater, as it is the smallest POSITIVE number. Then you do 3, as it as a whole number, but still not the greatest. 9 would be the greatest.

The regression equation of Y on X is given by the following formula:

$Y-\bar{Y}=b_{yx}(X-\bar{X})$

Where byx is given by the formula:

$b_{yx}=\frac{N\sum^{}_{}XY-\sum^{}_{}X\sum^{}_{}Y}{N\sum^{}_{}X^2-(\sum^{}_{}X)^2}$

Where N is the number of values (N=8). We need to find the sum of X values, the sum of Y values, the average of X, the average of Y, the sum of X*Y and the sum of X^2.

The table of values is:

The values we need to know are on the following table:

By replacing the known values in the formula we obtain:

$\begin{gathered} b_{yx}=\frac{8\cdot26125-167\cdot995}{8\cdot4649-(167)^2} \\ b_{yx}=\frac{209000-166165}{37192-27889} \\ b_{yx}=\frac{42835}{9303} \\ b_{yx}=4.6 \end{gathered}$

Now, the average of X and Y is the sum divided by N, then:
