Answer:

y = -x + 11

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a straight line is is given by:

y = mx + b; where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

The equation of the line joining G(9, 8) and H(3, 2) is given as:

y-y_1=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}(x-x_1)\\\\y-8=\frac{2-8}{3-9}(x-9)\\\\y-8=x-9\\\\y=x-1

The perpendicular bisector of the line joining G(9, 8) and H(3, 2) is perpendicular to the line joining G(9, 8) and H(3, 2) and passes through the midpoint of line joining G(9, 8) and H(3, 2).

Let (x, y) be the midpoint of the line joining G(9, 8) and H(3, 2). Hence:

x = (9 + 3)/2 = 6

y = (8 + 2)/2 = 5

The midpoint = (6, 5)

Two lines are perpendicular if the product of their slopes is -1.

The line joining G(9, 8) and H(3, 2) has a slope of 1, hence, the slope of the perpendicular bisector would be -1.

This means that the perpendicular bisector has a slope of -1 and passes through (6, 5). Using:

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)\\\\y-5=-1(x-6)\\\\y-5=-x+6\\\\y=-x+11

The equation of the perpendicular bisector is y = -x + 11

Answer: 32.35 cm^2

Step by step:

Find the area of the rectangle first.

A= L • W
A= 11 • 4.2
A= 46.2 cm^2

Then find the area of the circle. The formula is A= pi (r)^2. The diameter of the circle is 4.2 cm because looking at the width of the rectangle it fits into the circle as well.

Half of the diameter is 2.1 cm which is the radius.

A= pi (r)^2
A= pi (2.1)^2
A= pi (4.41)
A= 13.85 cm^2

Then you would subtract 13.85 from 46.2 to find the shaded portion.

Hope this helps :))

The following graph describes function 1, and the equation below it describes function 2. Determine which function has a greater
LenaWriter [7]

Answer:

Function 1 has the larger maximum at (4, 1)

Explanation:

After observation, graph of function 1 has vertex at Maximum (4, 1)

In order to find vertex of function 2, complete square the equation.

f(x) = -x² + 2x - 3

f(x) = -(x² - 2x) - 3

f(x) = -(x - 1)² - 3 + (-1)²

f(x) = -(x - 1)² - 2

Vertex form: y = a(x - h)² + k where (h, k) is the vertex

So, here for function 2 vertex: Maximum (1, -2)

<h3>Conclusion:</h3>

Function 1 = Maximum (4, 1), Function 2 = Maximum (1, -2)

Function 1 has greater maximum value of (4, 1) as "1 is greater than -2"
