A perpendicular bisector, CD is drawn through point C on AB.

STALIN [3.7K]

<u>Answer</u>

B(18/5,0)

<u>Explanation</u>

First we find the coordinates of C;

C (x, y) = [(-3+7)/2, (2+6)/2]

= (2, 4)

Find the equation of CD.

slope = (6-2)/(7--3)

= 4/10 = 2/5

slope of CD = -5/2

-5/2 = (y - 4)/(x - 2)

-5/2(x - 2) = y - 4

(-5/2) x + 5 = y - 4

y = (-5/2)x + 9

For the x-intercept y = 0

∴ y = (-5/2)x + 9

0 = (-5/2)x + 9

5/2 x = 9

x = 2/5 × 9

= 18/5

x-intercept = (18/5, 0)
