equation for the perpendicular Bisector of the line segment whose endpoints are (-9,-8) and (7,-4)
Perpendicular bisector lies at the midpoint of a line
Lets find mid point of (-9,-8) and (7,-4)
midpoint formula is


midpoint is (-1, -6)
Now find the slope of the given line
(-9,-8) and (7,-4)


Slope of perpendicular line is negative reciprocal of slope of given line
So slope of perpendicular line is -4
slope = -4 and midpoint is (-1,-6)
y - y1 = m(x-x1)
y - (-6) = -4(x-(-1))
y + 6 = -4(x+1)
y + 6 = -4x -4
Subtract 6 on both sides
y = -4x -4-6
y= -4x -10
equation for the perpendicular Bisector y = -4x - 10

= 8
Answer:
You need the minimum cost for renting the meeting room given the following info
Reservation Fee = $18
Hourly Rate = $5
The renter wants to keep the cost below $58
So the cost will vary with the time, t you use the inequality below
5t + 18 ≤ 58
You can solve this to get that minimum
You can check you answer by graphing it.
I hope this helps!<3
-4(x + 1) + 5 = 17
Distribute -4 inside the parentheses.
(-4x - 4) + 5 = 17
Combine like terms (-4 + 5).
-4x + 1 = 17
Subtract 1 from both sides.
-4x = 16
Divide both sides by -4.
x = -4
