Answer:

1.y=-6x+6, y=\frac{6}{5} x+\frac{18}{5}, y=\frac{6}{11} x+\frac{42}{11}

2.y=-\frac{1}{2} x+2\frac{1}{4} , x=2, y=-\frac{7}{6}x+\frac{43}{12}

Step-by-step explanation:

A(−3, 0), B(0, 6), and C(4, 6)

using the midpoint formula: (\frac{x_1+x_2}{2}, \frac{y_1+y_2}{2}) we can find all of their midpoint which is necessary to complete question 1 and 2

Mid AB=(-1.5, 3), Mid BC=(2, 6), Mid AC=(0.5,3)

Next, we have to find the slope of from the vertex and the midpoint of each side. We use the slope formula: \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}.

You would get -6, 6/5, and 6/11.

Next you substitute in the coordinates for the equation of each for example: y=-6x, you switch in the set of cords AB which is (-1.5, 3). 3=-6(-1.5)+z and find that z=6, so the equation is y=-6x+6. As for the rest, repeat the same process until you find all 3 cords. You should get an answer of y=-6x+6, y=\frac{6}{5} x+\frac{18}{5}, y=\frac{6}{11} x+\frac{42}{11}

For question 2,

The line has to be perpendicular bisector to the midpoint, signifying that it has to split 2 angles into congruent angles and a side into half. In order to do that we need to first find the opposite reciprocal of each side's slope. Which means we need to once again use the slope formula and get the opposite reciprocal by -\frac{1}{slope}. For all the opposite reciprocal slopes you get will be incorporated into the final formulas. That gives us the slopes of -1/2, 0 and -7/6. Then do the same process of matching cords with these incomplete equations and you can find the final equations of y=-\frac{1}{2} x+2\frac{1}{4} , x=2, y=-\frac{7}{6}x+\frac{43}{12}

I hope that helped with your question!! :)

Also I'm an RSM student too and I didn't know how to do them before so I searched it up.

Serhud [2]

Answer:

The probability of both points falling in the same row or column is 7/19, or approximately 37%

Step-by-step explanation:

The easiest way to solve this is to think of it rephrased as "what is the probability that your second point will be in the same row or column as your first point".  With that frame of reference, you can simply consider how many other points are left that do or do not fall in line with the selected one.

After selecting one, there are 19 points left.

The row that the first one falls in will have 3 remaining empty points.

The column will have 4 remaining empty points.

Add those up and you have 7 possible points that meet the conditions being checked.

So the probability of both points falling in the same row or column is 7/19, or approximately 37%
