Answer:

the slope of the perpendicular bisector is -2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of the line joining the two points P1(0,3), P2(6,12) is given by

m1 = (y2-y1) / (x2-x1) = (12-3) / (6-0) = 9/6 = 1.5

The slope m2 of a line perpendicular to the previous line is given by

m1*m2 = -1

solving

m2 = -1/m1 = -1/ (3/2) = -2/3

THerefore the slope of the perpendicular bisector is -2/3

The perimeter of a rectangular field is 354 yards. If the width of the field is 82 yards, what is its length
GenaCL600 [577]
Length is 95 yards.

The perimeter of a rectangle is the sum of four sides. The four sides are either its length or width.

A rectangle has four sides where its angles are all right angles and its opposite sides are congruent or of equal size.

Perimeter = 2length + 2width ==> P = 2L   + 2W

354 = 2L + 2(82)
354 = 2L + 164
to get the length. we must transfer all like signs.
2L = 354 - 164
2L = 190
2L / 2 = 190 / 2
L = 95 yards.

A diagonal of a parallelogram is 20 inches long and makes angles of 17° and 49° with the sides. How long is the longest side?
stiv31 [10]
Angles of the parallelogram which is given in the problem are:α = 49° + 17 °= 66°

β = 180° - 66° = 114°

x - length of the longest side of the parallelogram;

Use the Sine Law:x / sin 49° = 20/ sin 17°

x / 0.7547 = 20 / 0.2924

0.2924 x = 15.094

x = 15.094 : .2924

x = 51.62 is the longest side of the parallelogram.

Alright so let's solve this! :)
••• Subtract 3w from both sides.
<span><span><span><span>5w</span>+3</span>−<span>3w</span></span>=<span><span><span>3w</span>+10</span>−<span>3w</span></span></span><span><span><span>2w</span>+3</span>=10
</span>••• Subtract 3 from both sides.
<span><span><span><span>2w</span>+3</span>−3</span>=<span>10−3</span></span><span><span>2w</span>=7
