<h3>Answer: Midpoint</h3>

Explanation:

The drawings you made are constructions of the perpendicular bisector. The "perpendicular" refers to the fact the second line meets the first line at a right angle (aka 90 degree angle). The "bisector" portion indicates the segment has been bisected, which is mathematical way of saying "cut in half".

The key here is the "bisector" portion. Because we've cut a segment like AB in half, this means segment AC and CB are the same length. The point C is the midpoint of AB. Point C is formed by intersecting the perpendicular bisector and the original segment. I'm referring to drawing (a), but the same idea applies to drawing (b) as well. I recommend using another letter than C for the second drawing.

Answer: y= -3x + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

y2-y1 divide by x2-x1 = m

therefore you would do 8 - -4= 12 divide by -1 - 3= -4 which gives you 12 divided by -4

m= 12/-4 aka m = -3

and to find the y intercept you should use one of the point coordination to plug it into the formula y=mx+ b

use (-1,8)

8= -3(-1) + b

8= 3+b

subtract 3 from both sides

b= 5

then plug the m and the b into y=mx + b

and you get y= -3 + 5

ANTONII [103]

Answer:

The voltage in exponential form would be $(\frac{3}{5})^3$ .

The original voltage in the circuit is $\frac{3}{5}$ of a volt.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the original voltage.

We have been given that the voltage in an electrical circuit is multiplied by itself each time it is reduced. The voltage is 27/125 of a volt and it has been reduced 3 times.

The original voltage multiplied by itself for 3 times would be $x\cdot x\cdot x=x^3$ .

Now, we will equate $x^3$ with 27/125 as:

$x^3=\frac{27}{125}$

We know that 27 is cube of 3 and 125 is cube of 5, so we can represent our equation as:

$x^3=\frac{3^3}{5^3}$

$x^3=(\frac{3}{5})^3$

Therefore, the voltage in exponential form would be $(\frac{3}{5})^3$

Now, we will take cube root of both sides to find original voltage in the circuit as:

$\sqrt[3]{x^3} =\sqrt[3]{(\frac{3}{5})^3}$

Using property $\sqrt[n]{a^n} =a$ , we will get:

$x =\frac{3}{5}$

Therefore, the original voltage in the circuit is $\frac{3}{5}$ of a volt.
