A triangle is formed from the points L(-3, 6), N(3, 2) and P(1, -8). Find the equation of the following lines:
Dima020 [189]

Answer:

Part A) y=\frac{3}{4}x-\frac{1}{4}  

Part B)  y=\frac{2}{7}x-\frac{5}{7}

Part C) y=\frac{2}{7}x+\frac{8}{7}

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

points L(-3, 6), N(3, 2) and P(1, -8)

Part A) Find the equation of the  median from N

we Know that

The median passes through point N to midpoint segment LP

step 1

Find the midpoint segment LP

The formula to calculate the midpoint between two points is equal to

M(\frac{x1+x2}{2},\frac{y1+y2}{2})

we have

L(-3, 6) and P(1, -8)

substitute the values

M(\frac{-3+1}{2},\frac{6-8}{2})

M(-1,-1)

step 2

Find the slope of the segment NM

The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to

m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}  

we have

N(3, 2) and M(-1,-1)

substitute the values

m=\frac{-1-2}{-1-3}

m=\frac{-3}{-4}

m=\frac{3}{4}

step 3

Find the equation of the line in point slope form

y-y1=m(x-x1)

we have

m=\frac{3}{4}

point\ N(3, 2)

substitute

y-2=\frac{3}{4}(x-3)

step 4

Convert to slope intercept form

Isolate the variable y

y-2=\frac{3}{4}x-\frac{9}{4}

y=\frac{3}{4}x-\frac{9}{4}+2

y=\frac{3}{4}x-\frac{1}{4}  

Part B) Find the equation of the  right bisector of LP

we Know that

The right bisector is perpendicular to LP and passes through midpoint segment LP

step 1

Find the midpoint segment LP

The formula to calculate the midpoint between two points is equal to

M(\frac{x1+x2}{2},\frac{y1+y2}{2})

we have

L(-3, 6) and P(1, -8)

substitute the values

M(\frac{-3+1}{2},\frac{6-8}{2})

M(-1,-1)

step 2

Find the slope of the segment LP

The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to

m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}  

we have

L(-3, 6) and P(1, -8)

substitute the values

m=\frac{-8-6}{1+3}

m=\frac{-14}{4}

m=-\frac{14}{4}

m=-\frac{7}{2}

step 3

Find the slope of the perpendicular line to segment LP

Remember that

If two lines are perpendicular, then their slopes are opposite reciprocal (the product of their slopes is equal to -1)

m_1*m_2=-1

we have

m_1=-\frac{7}{2}

so

m_2=\frac{2}{7}

step 4

Find the equation of the line in point slope form

y-y1=m(x-x1)

we have

m=\frac{2}{7}

point\ M(-1,-1) ----> midpoint LP

substitute

y+1=\frac{2}{7}(x+1)

step 5

Convert to slope intercept form

Isolate the variable y

y+1=\frac{2}{7}x+\frac{2}{7}

y=\frac{2}{7}x+\frac{2}{7}-1

y=\frac{2}{7}x-\frac{5}{7}

Part C) Find the equation of the altitude from N

we Know that

The altitude is perpendicular to LP and passes through point N

step 1

Find the slope of the segment LP

The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to

m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}  

we have

L(-3, 6) and P(1, -8)

substitute the values

m=\frac{-8-6}{1+3}

m=\frac{-14}{4}

m=-\frac{14}{4}

m=-\frac{7}{2}

step 2

Find the slope of the perpendicular line to segment LP

Remember that

If two lines are perpendicular, then their slopes are opposite reciprocal (the product of their slopes is equal to -1)

m_1*m_2=-1

we have

m_1=-\frac{7}{2}

so

m_2=\frac{2}{7}

step 3

Find the equation of the line in point slope form

y-y1=m(x-x1)

we have

m=\frac{2}{7}

point\ N(3,2)

substitute

y-2=\frac{2}{7}(x-3)

step 4

Convert to slope intercept form

Isolate the variable y

y-2=\frac{2}{7}x-\frac{6}{7}

y=\frac{2}{7}x-\frac{6}{7}+2

y=\frac{2}{7}x+\frac{8}{7}

Nata [24]

Answer: 15 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we have been informed that the Steelers are on the Cowboys' fifteen-yard line. Using the place value mat to calculate how much farther Steelers need to travel to score a touchdown goes thus:

Since the play is 15 yards from the Cowboys end-zone, therefore Steelers need to travel 15 yards for them score a touchdown.

A rectangle is 3 inches long and 2x inches wide. The value of the perimeter (in inches) is equal to the value of the area (in sq
Sergio [31]
The perimeter of the rectangle is equal to the doubled sum of the sides, and the area is equal to the product of the sides. So we have the following equation

3 x 2x = 2(3 + 2x)
6x = 6 + 4x
2x = 6
x = 3
