The equation of the perpendicular bisector of BC with B(-2, 1), and C(4, 2) is y = 7.6 - 6•x
<h3>Which method can be used to find the equation of the perpendicular bisector?</h3>The slope, <em>m</em>, of the line BC is calculated as follows;
- m = (2 - 1)/(4 - (-2)) = 1/6
The slope of the perpendicular line to BC is -1/(1/6) = -6
The midpoint of the line BC is found as follows;
The perpendicular bisector is the perpendicular line constructed from the midpoint of BC.
The equation of the perpendicular bisector in point and slope form is therefore;
(y - 1.5) = -6•(x - 1)
y - 1.6 = -6•x + 6
y = -6•x + 6 + 1.6 = 7.6 - 6•x
Which gives;
- y = 7.6 - 6•x

Answer:
The inverse function is g(x) = ± , x ≥ -12 ⇒ D
Step-by-step explanation:
* Lets explain how to find the inverse function
- The steps of find the inverse of function f(x)
# Write y = f(x)
# Switch x and y
# Solve to find the new y
* Lets solve the problem
∵ f(x) = 9x² - 12
- Do the steps above
- Put y = f(x)
∵ y = f(x)
∴ y = 9x² - 12
- Switch x and y
∴ x = 9y² - 12
- Add both sides by 12
∴ x + 12 = 9y²
- take √ for both side don't forget to put ± in-front of it
∴ ± = 3y
- Divide both sides by 3
∴ y = ±
∵ There is no square root for negative number
∴ x + 12 ≥ 0 ⇒ subtract 12 from both sides
∴ x ≥ -12
- The function is defined for all values of x greater than or equal -12
∴ The inverse function is g(x) = ± , x ≥ -12
