Points (1, 7) and (-3, 2)
Slope for a line between (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) , m = (y₂ -y₁) / (x₂- x₁)
The slope for the line joining the two points = (2 - 7) / (-3 - 1) = -5/-4
Slope = 5/4
Hence the perpendicular bisector would have a slope of -1/(5/4) = -4/5
By condition of perpendicularity
For points (1, 7) and (-3, 2),
Formula for midpoints for (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) is ((x₁ +x₂)/2 , (y₁+ y₂)/2)
Midpoint for (1, 7) and (-3, 2) = ((1+ -3)/2 , (7+2)/2) = (-2/2, 9/2)
= (-1, 9/2)
Since the slope of perpendicular bisector is -4/5 and passes through the midpoint (-1, 9/2)
Equation y - y₁ = m (x - x₁)
y - 9/2 = (-4/5) (x - -1)
y - 9/2 = (-4/5)(x + 1)
5(y - 9/2) = -4(x + 1)
5y - 45/2 = -4x - 4
5y = -4x - 4 + 45/2
5y + 4x = 45/2 - 4
5y + 4x = 22 1/2 - 4 = 18 1/2
5y + 4x = 37/2
10y + 8x = 37
The equation of the line to perpendicular bisector is 10y + 8x = 37
Answer
Find out the the rate of the boat in still water.
To proof
let us assume that the speed of the boat in the still water = u
let us assume that the speed of the current = v
Formula
As given
18 miles downstream for 3 hours
Now for the downstream
u + v = 6
now for the upstream
As given
the trip back against the current takes 6 hours
u-v = 3
Than the two equation becomes
u + v = 6 and u - v = 3
add both the above equation
we get
2u = 9
u = 4.5miles per hour
put this in the u - v = 3
4.5 -v = 3
v =1.5 miles per hour
The rate of the boat in the still water is 4.5miles per hour .
Hence proved
Answer:
Rick ran 5.6 miles on Thursday.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's first find the speed Rick ran on Wednesday.
D=RT
4.2 = (3/4)R
R = 5.6 mph.
D=RT
D=(5.6 mph)(1)
D=5.6 miles
Let me know if this helps!
The lines are parallel.
Theorem: If two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, then same side interior angles are supplementary.
The angles measuring 16x + 4 and 80 are supplementary, so thjeir measures add to 180.
16x + 4 + 80 = 180
16x + 84 = 180
16x = 96
x = 6
Answer: A - 6
