Answer:

The midpoint of the points (2,8) and (0,4) is given by:

y

)=(1,6)

We must must transform the standard form equation −3x+6y=5 into a slope-intercept form equation (y=mx+b) to find its slope.

−3x+6y=5 (Subtract 3x on both sides.)

6y=3x+5 (Divide both sides by 6.)

y=

The slope of our first line is equal to

2

1

. Perpendicular lines have negative reciprocal slopes, so if the slope of one is x, the slope of the other is

x

1

.

The negative reciprocal of

2

1

is equal to −2, therefore, −2 is the slope of our line.

Since the equation of line passing through the midpoint (1,6), therefore, substitute the given point in the equation y=−2x+b:

6=(−2×1)+b

6=−2+b

b=6+2=8

Substitute this value for b in the equation y=−2x+b:

y=−2x+8

Hence, the equation of the line is y=−2x+8.

  • Answer:

<em>372₁₀ = 2442₅</em>

  • Step-by-step explanation:

<em>372 : 5 = 74 r 2</em>

<em>74 : 5 = 14 r 4</em>

<em>14 : 5 = 2 r 4</em>

<em>2 : 5 = 0 r 2 ↑</em>

<em>write down the remainders in the reverse order</em>
