Yes 7.5 is clearly the answer here
First, you have to find the equation of the perpendicular bisector of this given line.
to do that, you need the slope of the perpendicular line and one point.
Step 1: find the slope of the given line segment. We have the two end points (10, 15) and (-20, 5), so the slope is m=(15-5)/(10-(-20))=1/3
the slope of the perpendicular line is the negative reciprocal of the slope of the given line, m=-3/1=-3
step 2: find the middle point: x=(-20+10)/2=-5, y=(15+5)/2=10 (-5, 10)
so the equation of the perpendicular line in point-slope form is (y-10)=-3(x+5)
now plug in all the given coordinates to the equation to see which pair fits:
(-8, 19): 19-10=9, -3(-8+5)=9, so yes, (-8, 19) is on the perpendicular line.
try the other pairs, you will find that (1,-8) and (-5, 10) fit the equation too. (-5,10) happens to be the midpoint.
Just do 3^2 * 3^2 he is incorrect because he multiplied the exponents and he was suppose to add them together. the correct answer should be 3 to the 4th power which is 81
If he puts 300 sunfish into the pond, he will put 225 perch in the pond.
<h3>What is a ratio?</h3>
A ratio is the comparison of one thing to another. Generally, ratios compares value.
They store the children pond keeping a ratio of 4 sunfish to 3 perch. Therefore, the ratio of sunfish to perch will be as follows
If he 300 sunfish into the pond , the number of perch that will be in the pond can be calculated as follows:
cross multiply
4x = 900
x = 900 / 4
x = 225
