Answer:

$\frac{0}{5}$ or zero.

Step-by-step explanation:

The pair on the left is (-4, -5). The pair on the right is (1, -5).

In order to find the slope, you must first subtract the y in the first pair by the y in the second pair. Then what ever answer you get will be your numerator. Then, subtract the x in the second pair by the x in the first pair and that will be your denominator. So, in this case, it would be $\frac{-5 - -5}{1 - -4}$ which equals $\frac{0}{5}$ . If a zero is the numerator, that means that the fraction is zero. If the zero had been on the bottom, then the answer would have been <em>undefined. </em>

In short the formula to find slope is: $y^{2}$ - $y^{1}$ over $x^{2}$ - $x^{1}$ .

The equation for slope is: (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
The two points you have are (-4,-5) and (1,-5)

If I plug them in, I get: (-5 + 5)/(1 + 4) = 0/5

0 divided by any number is 0, so your slope is 0.

I hope this helps!

A. The point-slope form of the equation of a line is y ? y1 = m(x ? x1), where m is the slope and (x1, y1) is a point on the lin

Answer:

$y - 5 = -2(x-6)$

Negative reciprocal gives you the perpendicular slope so negative reciprocal of 1/2 is -2.

Then apply point-slope form.

B. The answer is x = 6.

The midpoint of JK is

$\left( \frac{x_1 + x_2}{2}, \frac{y_1 + y_2}{2} \right) = \left( \frac{8+ 4}{2}, \frac{4 + 4}{2} \right) = \left(6,4\right)$

The line that goes through JK is just a horizontal line $y = 4$ because the y-coordinate does not change. So its perpendicular bisector is the vertical line that goes through the x-coordinate of the midpoint, that is, $x = 6$ .
