The perpendicular bisector would be the line that connects with the line HI at a 90 degree angle and in the mid-point. This means that we would have to find the slope of the line HI and take the opposite. The slope of HI is 1/3. This means that the slope of the perpendicular line is -3. Now we must solve for the line that crosses through the midpoint. y=mx+b we know that m=-3 and that the midpoint is at -1,3 so x=-1 and y=3. 3=(-3)-1+b. We then solve for b and find it to be 0. So the final answer is y= -3x
Answer:
2.45
Step-by-step explanation:
B+16.12=18.57. Take the sum and the given value and subtract the given value from the sum. You can do this on all problems like this.
5x = -1
x = -1/5 = -0.2
That means that any ordered pair for the line will be (-0.2, y)
You can put any number in for y.
So two ordered pairs could be:
(-0.2, 1)
and
(-0.2, 2)
If the second equation is y=-3x+4 then they would be parallel and I found that by turning the first equation into y=mx+b and you subtract x from both sides of the equation and get -3y=-x+15 and then you divide both sides of the equation by -3 to get the y by itself and that turns into y=1/3x-5 and since 1/3 is the reciprocal of -3 they are perpendicular.
