Line segment ST has endpoints (3,2) and (7,4). What is the equation for the perpendicular bisecotr?

1 answer:

7 0

We need Vector ST which is just T - S

(7-3.4-2) = (4,2)

So now we need the perpindicular. The easiest way to do this, is to know that , in R2 that the perindicular is just the negatice inverse. So its (2,-4)

Answer:

b. ellipse

Step-by-step explanation:

The squared terms have the same sign and different coefficients. That means the equation describes an ellipse.

Additional comment

both variables are highest degree 2:

coefficients have the same sign and magnitude: circle

coefficients have the same sign and different magnitude: ellipse

coefficients have different signs: hyperbola*

only one variable has highest degree 2:

parabola

____

* If the equation can be factored to a product of linear terms that is zero, then the equation is of two intersecting lines. This is a degenerate case of the hyperbola in which the major axis is zero: the two vertices are the same point.

What is the sum of the arithmetic sequence 151, 137, 123,..if there are 26 terms?

ElenaW [278]

First term: a1 = 151
common difference: d = -14 (we decrease by 14 each time, eg, 151-14 = 137)

nth term of this arithmetic sequence is...
an = a1+d(n-1)
an = 151+(-14)(n-1)
an = 151-14n+14
an = -14n+165

This will be used in the formula below

Sn = n*(a1+an)/2
Sn = n*(151+(-14n+165))/2
S26 = 26*(151+(-14*26+165))/2 ... replace every n with 26
S26 = -624

The final answer here is choice C) -624
