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:
£375
Step-by-step explanation:
The tax changed from 17.5% of the car's price to 20% of the car's price, an increase of 2.5% of the car's price.
The increased tax amount is ...
0.025 × £15000 = £375
The price of the car went up by £375 due to the increase in VAT.

Answer:
9.72
Step-by-step explanation:
s1 = 10.6383 ; s2 = 5.21289
x1 = 147.583 ; x2 = 136.417
n1 = 12 ; n2 = 12
df1 = n1 - 1 = 12 - 1 = 11
df2 = n2 - 1 = 12 - 1 = 11
The test statistic :
(x1 - x2) / sqrt[(sp²/n1 + sp²/n2)]
Pooled variance = Sp² = (df1*s1² + df2*s2²) ÷ (n1 + n2 - 2)
Sp² = ((11*10.6383) + (11*5.21289)) / 22 = 7.926
Test statistic, T* :
(147.583 - 136.417) / √(7.926 * (1/12 + 1/12))
11.166 / √(7.926 * (1/6)
11.166 / √1.321
11.166 / 1.1493476
T* = 9.7150766
Test statistic = 9.72
Answer:
Plants are restrictive to flow of eroding agents, bind soil in their roots.
Step-by-step explanation:
Soil Erosion is the wearing away of the topmost fertile layer of soil. Topsoil gets eroded mainly due to wind, water agents.
Plants help to prevent soil from erosion in following ways :
- Plants act as restriction to the speed of air & water, which are the main soil erosion agents. It also lets rain water get soaked into the ground water.
- Plants roots also bind the soil tightly, & make soil stronger to be eroded by erosive agents - water, air. Eg : Shrubs , trees, grass & ground are important soil erosion preventive plants, because of their extensive root systems.
