6 = - 4/y
6y = -4
y = -4/6
y = -2/3
1) slope = (y₂-y₁)/(x₂-x₁)
Let A and B be A(4,-6) and B(0,2) ;
m = [2-(-6)]/[0-4) = (2+6)/(-4) → m = -2
2) Midpoint = value of x of the midpoint = (x₁+x₂)/2
value of y of the midpoint = (y₁+y₂)/2
x(midpoint) = (4+0)/2 → x= 2
y(midpoint) = (-6+2)/2 → y= - 2, so Midpoint M(2,-2)
3) Slope of the perpendicular bisector to AB:
The slope of AB = m = -2
Any perpendicular to AB will have a slope m' so that m*m' = -1 (or in other term, the slope of one is inverse reciprocal of the second, then if m =-2, then m' = +1/2 ; Proof [ (-2)(1/2) = -1]
4) Note that the perpendicular bisector of AB passes through the midpoint of AB or M(2,-2). Moreover we know that the slope of the bisector is m'= 1/2
The equation of the linear function is :
y = m'x + b or y = (1/2)x + b. To calculate b, replace x and y by their respective values [in M(-2,2)]
2= (1/2).(-2) + b → 2 = -1 + b → and b= 3, hence the equation is:
y = (1/2)x + 3
Answer:
3:10
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Find the total number of students by doing
14 + 6= 20
2. Now make your ratio
6:20
3. To make it in simplest form, divide both sides by 2
6 divided by 2 is 3
20 divided by 2 is 10
4. Your answer is
3:10
The ratio between the departments is
A: B: C
15000 : 18000 : 9000
15 : 18 : 9
5 : 6 : 3
The budget needs to be divided into 5+6+3 = 14 parts
The budget for one part is 22000/14
The budget for department B is
Rounded to the nearest dollar, the budget is $9429
Answer:
4
Step-by-step explanation:
If she got a 90% on her test, and the test was 40 questions long, we need to do a bit of division and multiplication.
We have to divide 40 by 100, as percentages are out of 100.
So now we have 0.4.
Now we multiply this by 90.
36. She got 36 answers correct out of 40, which means she got four wrong.
