Answer:
y= -2x -8
Step-by-step explanation:
I will be writing the equation of the perpendicular bisector in the slope-intercept form which is y=mx +c, where m is the gradient and c is the y-intercept.
A perpendicular bisector is a line that cuts through the other line perpendicularly (at 90°) and into 2 equal parts (and thus passes through the midpoint of the line).
Let's find the gradient of the given line.

Gradient of given line




The product of the gradients of 2 perpendicular lines is -1.
(½)(gradient of perpendicular bisector)= -1
Gradient of perpendicular bisector
= -1 ÷(½)
= -1(2)
= -2
Substitute m= -2 into the equation:
y= -2x +c
To find the value of c, we need to substitute a pair of coordinates that the line passes through into the equation. Since the perpendicular bisector passes through the midpoint of the given line, let's find the coordinates of the midpoint.

Midpoint of given line



Substituting (-3, -2) into the equation:
-2= -2(-3) +c
-2= 6 +c
c= -2 -6 <em>(</em><em>-</em><em>6</em><em> </em><em>on both</em><em> </em><em>sides</em><em>)</em>
c= -8
Thus, the equation of the perpendicular bisector is y= -2x -8.
Answer:
7 months
Step-by-step explanation:
He plans on depositing $200 every month into the savings account that already has $600 in it.
We can represent the amount of money he will have after a certain number of months (x) as:
A = 600 + 200x
He needs to save $2000. Therefore, to find the months he needs to save, we need to find x when A is $2000:
2000 = 600 + 200x
200x = 2000 - 600
200x = 1400
x = 1400/200 = 7 months
He needs to save for 7 months.
