Solution :

It is given that Louis is constructing a perpendicular bisector of a line GH.

Let the line GH be x units of length.

Louis is constructing a perpendicular bisector. So he should follow the following steps :

1. Louis should take the help of a compass and place the needle of the compass on one end of the line and take a measurement that is equal to the more than half the length of the line GH.

2. Then keeping the compass needle at one end of he line, Louis have to draw an arc above and below the line GH.

3. Now with the same measurement in the compass, place the compass needle on the other end and similarly cut two arcs above and below intersecting the previous arcs.

4. Now join the intersecting point with a straight line.

5. This is the perpendicular bisector of the given line GH.

lbvjy [14]

Easily we can use formula y=(x-h)^2 +k

as equation of a parabola if vertex was (h,k):

Y=(x-1)^2 + 3

and maybe node (2,6) is incorrect for this vertex of a parabola!!!

Summer spent $55.60 on clothes before sales tax. If sales tax is 7.5%, what did Summer spend with tax included? *Add Explanatio

$59.77. Turn the percent into a decimal by moving the decimal to the left two places (7.5 to 0.075). Then multiply the new decimal by the cost (55.60×0.075=4.17). 4.17 would be the total sales tax, so then add it to the price (55.77+4.17=59.77). Hope that helped.
