First, you have to find the equation of the perpendicular bisector of this given line. to do that, you need the slope of the perpendicular line and one point. Step 1: find the slope of the given line segment. We have the two end points (10, 15) and (-20, 5), so the slope is m=(15-5)/(10-(-20))=1/3 the slope of the perpendicular line is the negative reciprocal of the slope of the given line, m=-3/1=-3 step 2: find the middle point: x=(-20+10)/2=-5, y=(15+5)/2=10 (-5, 10) so the equation of the perpendicular line in point-slope form is (y-10)=-3(x+5)
now plug in all the given coordinates to the equation to see which pair fits: (-8, 19): 19-10=9, -3(-8+5)=9, so yes, (-8, 19) is on the perpendicular line.
try the other pairs, you will find that (1,-8) and (-5, 10) fit the equation too. (-5,10) happens to be the midpoint.
the lowest number that 5 and 2 go into is 10 a quick way to find LCD is just to multiply the denominators and that just see if there is any smaller numbers
A)Add 3 and the continue to add 2 more to three each time to get the next number B)add 1 and add one to the number one each time to get the the next number
