Answer:
B. 1/((x -1)(x -2))
Step-by-step explanation:
The vertical asymptotes at x=1 and x=2 tell you the denominator will have factors such that these values make it zero: (x -1)(x -2). That is sufficient to identify choice B as the correct answer.
Okay to find the perpendicular bisector of a segment you first need to find the slope of the reference segment.
m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1) in this case:
m=(-5-1)/(2-4)
m=-6/-2
m=3
Now for the the bisector line to be perpendicular its slope must be the negative reciprocal of the reference segment, mathematically:
m1*m2=-1 in this case:
3m=-1
m=-1/3
So now we know that the slope is -1/3 we need to find the midpoint of the line segment that we are bisecting. The midpoint is simply the average of the coordinates of the endpoints, mathematically:
mp=((x1+x2)/2, (y1+y2)/2), in this case:
mp=((4+2)/2, (1-5)/2)
mp=(6/2, -4/2)
mp=(3,-2)
So our bisector must pass through the midpoint, or (3,-2) and have a slope of -1/3 so we can say:
y=mx+b, where m=slope and b=y-intercept, and given what we know:
-2=(-1/3)3+b
-2=-3/3+b
-2=-1+b
-1=b
So now we have the complete equation of the perpendicular bisector...
y=-x/3-1 or more neatly in my opinion :P
y=(-x-3)/3
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
4) ΔSTW ≅ ΔBFN . So, corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent.
a) BN = SW d) m∠W = m∠N
BN = 9 cm m∠W = 82°
b) TW = FN e) m∠B = m∠S
TW = 14 cm m∠B = 67°
c) BF = ST f) m∠B + m∠N + m∠F = 180°
BF = 17 cm 67 + 82 + m∠F = 180
149 + m∠F = 180
m∠F = 180 - 149
m∠F = 31°
5) ΔUVW ≅ ΔTSR
UV = TS
12x - 7 = 53
12x = 53+7
12x = 60
x = 60/12
x = 5
UW =TR
3z +14 = 50
3z = 50 - 14
3z = 36
z = 36/3
z = 12
SR =VW
5y - 33 = 57
5y = 57 + 33
5y = 90
y = 90/5
y = 18
7) ΔPHS ≅ ΔCNF
∠C = ∠P
4z - 32 = 36
4z = 36 + 32
4z = 68
z = 68/4
z = 17
∠H = ∠N
6x - 29 = 115
6x = 115 + 29
6x = 144
x = 144/6
x = 24
∠P + ∠H + ∠S = 180 {Angle sum property of triangle}
36 +115 + ∠S = 180
151 + ∠S = 180
∠S = 180 - 151
∠S = 29°
∠F = ∠S
3y - 1 = 29
3y = 29 + 1
3y = 30
y = 30/3
y = 10
8) ΔDEF ≅ ΔJKL
DE = 18 ; EF = 23
DF = 9x - 23
JL= 7x- 11
DF = JL {Corresponding parts of congruent triangles}
9x - 23 = 7x - 11
9x - 7x - 23 = -11
2x - 23 = -11
2x = -11 + 23
2x = 12
x = 12/2
x = 6
JK = DE {Corresponding parts of congruent triangles}
3y - 21 = 18
3y = 18 + 21
3y = 39
y = 39/3
y = 13
Katelan has 9 friends as guests for a costume party. Katelan is elaborating carnival masks for them. So far , she has made 7 masks. How much more masks is Katelan left to do?
Answer: Katelan has 2 masks left to do . Because 7 (plus) 2 is 9.
