6 0

Answer:

Each of the points and the y-intercept of their perpendicular bisectors

1) A(-4,5) and B(8,9), y-intercept = 13

2) A(2, 4) and B(-8,6), y-intercept = 20

3) A(5, 4) and B(7.2), y-intercept = -3

4) A(2, 9) and B(-4.3), y-intercept = 5

5) A(3.-2) and B(9.-12), y-intercept = -10.6

6) A(4, 10) and B(8, 12), y-intercept = 23

Arranged in order of increasing y-intercepts of their perpendicular bisectors, from the smallest to largest y-intercept

5) A(3.-2) and B(9.-12), y-intercept = -10.6

3) A(5, 4) and B(7.2), y-intercept = -3

4) A(2, 9) and B(-4.3), y-intercept = 5

1) A(-4,5) and B(8,9), y-intercept = 13

2) A(2, 4) and B(-8,6), y-intercept = 20

6) A(4, 10) and B(8, 12), y-intercept = 23

Step-by-step explanation:

The slopes of two perpendicular lines are related as thus

m₁m₂ = -1

Hence, for each of the two Points given, the slope of the perpendicular bisector is

m₂ = -(1/m₁)

But the slope of each of the lines connecting the two points is given as

m = (y₁ - y₂)/(x₁ - x₂)

And the coordinates of the midpoint, that the perpendicular bisector passes through is given as

(x, y) = {[(x₁ + x₂)/2], [(y₁ + y₂)/2]}

And from the slope of the perpendicular bisector and the coordinates of the midpoint of each question point, we can obtain the equation of the line that is the perpendicular bisector. And easily obtain the y-intercept from that.

Taking the points, one at time

1) A(-4,5) and B(8,9)

Slope of the line connecting the two points = m₁ = (9 - 5)/(8 - -4) = (4/12) = (1/3)

Slope of the perpendicular bisector

= m₂ = -1 ÷ (1/3) = -3

The midpoint of the two points is given as

= [(-4 + 8)/2, (9 + 5)/2]

= (2, 7)

The equation of the perpendicular bisector is then given as the equation of line with slope -3 and passes through (2, 7)

y = mx + c

7 = (-3×2) + c

7 = -6 + c

c = 7 + 6 = 13

y = -3x + 13

y-intercept = 13

2) A(2, 4) and B(-8,6)

Slope of the line connecting the two points = m₁ = (6 - 4)/(-8 - 2) = -(2/10) = -(1/5)

Slope of the perpendicular bisector

= m₂ = -1 ÷ -(1/5) = 5

The midpoint of the two points is given as

= [(2 + -8)/2, (4 + 6)/2]

= (-3, 5)

The equation of the perpendicular bisector is then given as the equation of line with slope 5 and passes through (-3, 5)

y = mx + c

5 = (5×-3) + c

5 = -15 + c

c = 5 + 15 = 20

y = 5x + 20

y-intercept = 20

3) A(5, 4) and B(7.2)

Slope of the line connecting the two points = m₁ = (2 - 4)/(7 - 5) = -(2/2) = -1

Slope of the perpendicular bisector

= m₂ = -1 ÷ -1 = 1

The midpoint of the two points is given as

= [(5 + 7)/2, (4 + 2)/2]

= (6, 3)

The equation of the perpendicular bisector is then given as the equation of line with slope 1 and passes through (6, 3)

y = mx + c

3 = (1×6) + c

3 = 6 + c

c = 3 - 6 = -3

y = x - 3

y-intercept = -3

4) A(2, 9) and B(-4.3)

Slope of the line connecting the two points = m₁ = (3 - 9)/(-4 - 2) = (-6/-6) = 1

Slope of the perpendicular bisector

= m₂ = -1 ÷ 1 = -1

The midpoint of the two points is given as

= [(2 + -4)/2, (9 + 3)/2]

= (-1, 6)

The equation of the perpendicular bisector is then given as the equation of line with slope -1 and passes through (-1, 6)

y = mx + c

6 = (-1×-1) + c

6 = 1 + c

c = 6 - 1 = 5

y = -x + 5

y-intercept = 5

5) A(3.-2) and B(9.-12)

Slope of the line connecting the two points = m₁ = (-12 - -2)/(9 - 3) = (-10/6) = -(5/3)

Slope of the perpendicular bisector

= m₂ = -1 ÷ (-5/3) = (3/5)

The midpoint of the two points is given as

= [(3 + 9)/2, (-2 + -12)/2]

= (6, -7)

The equation of the perpendicular bisector is then given as the equation of line with slope 3/5 and passes through (6, -7)

y = mx + c

-7 = [(3/5)×6] + c

-7 = 3.6 + c

c = -7 + -3.6 = -10.6

y = 3x/5 - 10.6

y-intercept = -10.6

6) A(4, 10) and B(8, 12)

Slope of the line connecting the two points = m₁ = (12 - 10)/(8 - 4) = (2/4) = (1/2)

Slope of the perpendicular bisector

= m₂ = -1 ÷ (1/2) = -2

The midpoint of the two points is given as

= [(4 + 8)/2, (10 + 12)/2]

= (6, 11)

The equation of the perpendicular bisector is then given as the equation of line with slope -2 and passes through (6, 11)

y = mx + c

11 = (-2×6) + c

11 = -12 + c

c = 11 + 12 = 23

y = -2x + 23

y-intercept = 23

1) A(-4,5) and B(8,9), y-intercept = 13

2) A(2, 4) and B(-8,6), y-intercept = 20

3) A(5, 4) and B(7.2), y-intercept = -3

4) A(2, 9) and B(-4.3), y-intercept = 5

5) A(3.-2) and B(9.-12), y-intercept = -10.6

6) A(4, 10) and B(8, 12), y-intercept = 23

Hope this Helps!!!

The diameter of a large sphere is 4 times the diameter of a small sphere. The surface area of the large sphere is how many times
Sever21 [200]
Surface Area of a Sphere = 4π(d/2)²
Let the smaller sphere's diameter be just a sample of 4 units in diameter and let the large spheres diameter be 4 times that of the smaller sphere.

Small Sphere: 4π(4/2)² = 16π units²
Large Sphere: 4π(16/2)² = 256π units²

256π / 16π = 16 times

The large sphere has a surface area 16 times that of the smaller one.

There were 178 old cars at the junkyard. Then a truck brought in some more cars. Now there are a total of 236 cars in the junkya
crimeas [40]

Answer:

<u>The correct answer is 58 cars.</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Cars in the junkyard before the truck arrived with some = 178

Cars after the truck brought into the junkyard some more= 236

Cars brought in by the truck = 236 - 178

Cars brought into the junkyard by the truck = 58

<u>The number of cars brought by the truck is 58 cars.</u>

How do you simplify 15/40​
Katyanochek1 [597]

Answer:3/8

Step-by-step explanation:

The simplest form of  

15 /40  is  3 /8 .

Steps to simplifying fractions

Find the GCD (or HCF) of numerator and denominator

GCD of 15 and 40 is 5

Divide both the numerator and denominator by the GCD

15 ÷ 5

40 ÷ 5

Reduced fraction:  

3 /8

Therefore, 15/40 simplified to lowest terms is 3/8.
