Answer: 3/8 is greater.

Step-by-step explanation:

35% is just 35/100. To compare 3/8 with 35/100, you need to make the denominator of 3/8 into 100. To do this, multiply both he top and the bottom by 12.5. You will get 37.5/100. Now, since the denominators are the same, just compare the numerators. 37.5/100 is greater than 35 so 3/8 is greater than 35%. You could also look at 37.5/100 as 37.5% which is more than 36% and, again, 3/8 is greater than 35%. Hope this helps!

There's 100 centimeters in a meter (centi means 100) so 79 centimeters equals 0.79 meters. So 4 - 0.79 is 3.21

Write an equation of the perpendicular bisector of the line segment whose endpoints are (−1,1) and (7,−5)

icang [17]

The equation is $y = \frac{3}{2} x - \frac{11}{2}$

<u>Explanation:</u>

We have to first find the mid-point of the segment, the formula for which is

$(\frac{x_1+x_2}{2} , \frac{y_1+y_2}{2} )$

So, the midpoint will be $(\frac{-1+7}{2} , \frac{1-5}{2} )\\\\$

= $(3,-2)$

It is the point at which the segment will be bisected.

Since we are finding a perpendicular bisector, we must determine what slope is perpendicular to that of the existing segment. To determine the segment's slope, we use the slope formula $\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$
