Answer:

The equation of the line segment to the line segment with end point (4, 4) and (-8, 8) is y = x/3 - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The coordinates of the given points are;

(4, 4) and (-8, 8)

Therefore;

Slope, \, m =\dfrac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}

Where;

y₁ = 4, y₂ = -8, x₁ = 4, x₂ = 8

Therefore, the slope, m of the given line segment = (-8 - 4)/(8 - 4) = -3

The slope of the perpendicular line segment = -1/m = -1/(-3) = 1/3

The mid point of the line segment with endpoint (4, 4) and (-8, 8) is given as follows;

Midpoint, M = \left (\dfrac{x_1 + x_2}{2} , \ \dfrac{y_1 + y_2}{2} \right )

Therefore, the midpoint  = ((4 + 8)/2, (4 + (-8))/2) = (6, -2)

The equation of the perpendicular line segment in point and slope form is given as follows;

y - (-2) = 1/3 × (x - 6)

Which gives;

y + 2 = x/3 - 6/3 = x/3 - 2

y = x/3 - 2 - 2 = x/3 - 4

The equation of the line segment to the line segment with end point (4, 4) and (-8, 8) is y = x/3 - 4

The equation for slope is y=mx+b therefore your equation would be y=.5x+2 or y=1/2+2
both of these are correct just the matter of fact of what way your teacher wants you to use :)
