Plains and rivers are different because rivers have water, fish, turtles, and sometimes alligators. They are similar since they both have land, birds, snakes, and more!

Answer:

Explanation:

The river plain can also known as just plains that are formed with minimum elevation. Rivers plains mainly occurs along the bottoms of valleys, near mountains.In geography, a plain is a flat, sweeping landmass that generally does not change much in elevation. Plains occur as lowlands along valleys or on the doorsteps of mountains, as coastal plains, and as plateaus or uplands. A coastal plain is a piece of land that is lying low and adjacent to the sea coast.

A river is a natural flowing watercourse, usually freshwater, flowing towards an ocean, sea, lake or another river. In some cases a river flows into the ground and becomes dry at the end of its course without reaching another body of water.

Find an equation for the perpendicular bisector of the line segment whose endpoints

zzz [600]

Answer:

y= -7/2x-26/2 or y= -7/2x-13

Explanation:

To solve this question you need all of these formulas:

gradient: $\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}$ , Point-Slope $y-y1=m(x-x1)$ ,

perpendicular m $(m1)x(m2)=-1$ , Midpoint $(\frac{x1+x2}{2}$ , $\frac{y1+y2}{2} )$

and equation of a line $y=mx+c$

where m stands for gradient

First things first.

To start you have to know the data of the line that includes the two endpoints, so you calculate its gradient (m) of this line with the gradient fromula: $m=\frac{-4-(-8)}{5-(-9)}$ , which equals 4/14 or 2/7

(It can also be called rise/run) (Remember the rule of signs where - and - equal +)

with that information you can proceed with the point-slope or point-gradient formula, so you plug the values: y-(-8) = 2/7 (x-(-9)), which results in y+8=2/7(x+9) and then y+8=2/7x+18/7.

To finish the equation you move eight to the other side. To simplify things you can change it into a fraction as I did, and remember to change signs.

y=2/7x+18/7 -8 -> y=2/7x+18/7-56/7 . This gives us the number of y=2/7x-38/7, which is the equation of the first line.

Now to know the gradient of the second line you apply the formula of perpendicular bisector where m1 x m2 = -1. We know m1 (gradient of the first line) is 2/7, so m2 = $\frac{-1}{2/7}$ = -7/2. m2 is therefore -7/2

Now you have to know the midpoint between the two endpoints, which will act as the start point of the perpendicular bisector

M (midpoint) = $(\frac{-9+5}{2} ,$ $\frac{8+(-4)}{2} )$ , which give us the coordinates of (-2, -6)

(remember, x coordinate is always first)

with this point we can apply again the point-slope formula to know the equation of the line:

y-(-6)=-7/2(x-(-2)) -> y+6=-7/2(x+2) -> y+6=-7/2x - 14/2

Move the 6 to isolate the y

y=-7/2x -14/2 - 12/2

which equals y= -7/2x -26/2

Please find the value of x and y

Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

x=16

y=121

Explanation:

first off you will solve for x so you set the two x equations equal and solve by subtracting 3x and adding 5 to both sides getting x=16 then you plug that value into the equation 4x-5 then take that from 180 and that y which is 121
