Indicate the equation of the given line in standard form, writing the answer below.

scZoUnD [109]

Answer: $y-\frac{11}{2}=6(x-2)$

Step-by-step explanation:

For it to bisect the segment, we need to find the midpoint.

The midpoint is $\left(\frac{-1+5}{2}, \frac{6+5}{2} \right)=\left(2, \frac{11}{2} \right)$ .

Now, for it to be perpendicular, we need to use the fact that perpendicular lines have slopes that are negative reciprocals of each other.

The slope of the given segment is $\frac{6-5}{-1-5}=-\frac{1}{6}$ , so the slope of the perpendicular bisector is 6.

Thus, the equation of the line in point-slope form is $\boxed{y-\frac{11}{2}=6(x-2)}$

Neeta is a fourth grader. She is 4 feet 7 inches tall. When she was bom she was 17 inches long. How much has Neeta grown since s

Virty [35]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find Neeta's total height in inches:

4 feet in inches is 4*12, which equals 48

Add the other 7 inches of her height to get 55 inches.

Then, subtract her initial height from her current height.

55 - 17 = 38. That is how many inches she has grown. Convert that to feet by dividing 38 by 12.

You get about 3.16, which is over 3 feet. So A is the correct answer.
