Answer:
Y-intercept is (0,8)
Step-by-step explanation:
Firstly, we need to get the equation of the line segment
We have the general equation as;
y = mx + b
m is the slope and b is the y-intercept
So for the slope between (9,6) and (-2,-1); we have
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m = (-1-6)/(-2-9) = -7/-11 = 7/11
Mathematically, when two lines are perpendicular, their slopes have a product of -1
Let the slope of the second line be m
m * 7/11 = -1
7m = -11
m = -11/7
The equation of the second line is;
y = mx + b
y = -11x/7 + b
The line passes through the point (3.5,2.5)
So,
2.5 = -11/7(3.5) + b
2.5 = -5.5 + b
b = 2.5 + 5.5
b = 8
so the y-intercept of the perpendicular bisector is 8
Divide, because you are splitting the 8 popsicles between them.
N=4.5 In the picture are the steps you should follow to solve for n.
Step-by-step explanation:
Root:(1/2, 0)
Domain: x∈R
Range: y∈R
Vertical intercept: (0, 1)
Answer:
5/7
Step-by-step explanation:
A common factor of 8 can be canceled from numerator and denominator.
40/56 = (5·8)/(7·8) = (5/7)·(8/8) = (5/7)·1 = 5/7
_____
Since you know your multiplication tables, you know that 40 and 56 are both multiples of 8.
__
If you don't know your multiplication tables, you can find the greatest common divisor (GCD) of the two numbers and divide each by that. The GCD can be found using Euclid's algorithm. For that, you divide the larger by the smaller and use the remainder as the new smaller number. The original smaller number is now the larger number. For these numbers, that looks like ...
56 ÷ 40 = 1 r 16
40 ÷ 16 = 2 r 8
16 ÷ 8 = 2 r 0 . . . . . the zero remainder signals that the divisor (8) is the GCD
Now, your fraction is ...
(40/8) / (56/8) = 5/7
