Let the point_1 = p₁ = (1,4)
and      point_2 = p₂ = (-2,1)
and      Point_3 = p₃ = (x,y)

The line from point_1 to point_2 is L₁ and has slope = m₁
The line from point_1 to point_3 is L₂ and has slope = m₂
m₁ = Δy/Δx = (1-4)/(-2-1) = 1
m₂ = Δy/Δx = (y-4)/(x-1)
L₁⊥L₂ ⇒⇒⇒⇒ m₁ * m₂ = -1
∴ (y-4)/(x-1) = -1 ⇒⇒⇒ (y-4)= -(x-1)
(y-4) = (1-x) ⇒⇒⇒⇒⇒⇒⇒⇒⇒⇒⇒⇒⇒⇒ equation (1)

The distance from point_1 to point_2 is d₁
The distance from point_1 to point_3 is d₂
d = \sqrt{Δx^2+Δy^2}
d₁ = \sqrt{(-2-1)^2+(1-4)^2}
d₂ = \sqrt{(x-1)^2+(y-4)^2}
d₁ = d₂
∴ \sqrt{(-2-1)^2+(1-4)^2} = \sqrt{(x-1)^2+(y-4)^2} ⇒⇒ eliminating the root
∴(-2-1)²+(1-4)² = (x-1)²+(y-4)²
 (x-1)²+(y-4)² = 18
from equatoin (1)  y-4 = 1-x
∴(x-1)²+(1-x)² = 18            ⇒⇒⇒⇒⇒ note: (1-x)² = (x-1)²
2 (x-1)² = 18
(x-1)² = 9
x-1 = \pm \sqrt{9} = \pm 3
∴ x = 4 or x = -2
∴ y = 1 or y = 7

Point_3 = (4,1)  or  (-2,7)

m_a_m_a [10]
F(x) = 3x+1
G(x) = X^2 - 6
F(G(x)) = F(X^2 - 6) = 3(X^2 - 6) + 1 = 3X^2 - 18 + 1 = 3X^2 -17
F(G(x)) = 3X^2 - 17

Answer:

9

Step-by-step explanation:

Math definition Mode means anything that repeats more than anything else.

Eg.(4, 5, 6, 2, 2, 4, 4, 4, 4, 5, 3, 5)

The mode in the bracket is 4. Some of the numbers occured more than once but 4 occured the most that's why it's 4
