Just did a specific one of these; let's do the general case.


The point nearest the origin is (a,b).


The line from the origin through the point is


bx - ay = 0


The line we seek is perpendicular to this one. We swap the coefficients on x and y, negating one, to get the perpendicular family of lines. We set the constant by plugging in the point (a,b):


ax + by = a^2 + b^2


ax + by -( a^2 + b^2) = 0


That's standard form; let's plug in the numbers:


4 x - 4 y - 32 = 0


x - y - 8 = 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

inland city has the coldest winter and warmest summer.

inland city, since it has a higher median of around 14.5 Celsius while coastal city has around 14 degrees Celsius

I would prefer to live in coastal city, since it has a smaller range of temperatures. Also, it has nice and mild weather: it has warmer winters than inland city, and cooler summers than inland city.
