Why is it important to rename 4 1/4 if you subtract 3/4 from it

Mathematics
1 answer:
zavuch27 [327]3 years ago
4 0
Because 3 2/4 would be the answer when you subtract it and most teachers and/or tests want you to simplify the answer which would be 1/2 because you would divide the numerator and denominator by 2.

For the given line segment, write the equation of the perpendicular bisector.
Jlenok [28]

Answer:

D) y = -4/5x – 47/10

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1. Find the <em>midpoint of the segmen</em>t.

The two end points are (-6, -4) and (-2, 1).

The midpoint is at the average of the coordinates.

(xₚ, yₚ) = ((x₁ + x₂)/2, (y₁ + y₂)/2)

(xₚ, yₚ) = ((-6 - 2)/2, (-4 + 1)/2)

(xₚ, yₚ) = (-8/2, -3/2)

(xₚ, yₚ) = (-4, -3/2)

===============

Step 2. Find the <em>slope (m₁) of the segment</em>

m₁ = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁)

m₁ = (1 - (-4))/(-2 - (-6))

m₁ = (1 + 4)/(-2 + 6)

m₁ = 5/4

===============

Step 3. Find the <em>slope (m₂) of the perpendicular bisector </em>

m₂ = -1/m₁

m₂ = -4/5

====================

Step 4. Find the <em>intercept of the perpendicular bisector</em>

y = mx + b

y = -(4/5)x + b

The line passes through (-4, -3/2).

-3/2 = -(4/5)(-4) + b

-3/2 = 16/5 + b      Multiply each side by 10

 -15 = 32 + 10 b    Subtract 32 from each side

 -47 = 10b             Divide each side by 10

    b = -47/10

===============

Step 5. Write the <em>equation for the perpendicular bisector</em>

y = -4/5x – 47/10

The graph shows the midpoint of your segment at (-4, -3/2) and the perpendicular bisector passing through the midpoint and (0, -47/10).
