Answer:

2y - 12x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

gradient of line PQ= (7-8)/ 4+2

-1/6

gradient of perpendicular bisector of line PQ=

-1 ÷ -1/6

-1× -6

6

coordinates of the midpoint of line PQ

(-2+4)/2, (8+7)/2

(1, 15/2)

the perpendicular bisector passes through the midpoint of line PQ

Equation of the perpendicular bisector

y - 15/2 = 6(x - 1)

multiply through by 2

2y - 15 = 12(x - 1)

2y - 15 = 12x - 12

2y - 12x = 3

The perimeter of a triangle is 42 yards. The first side is 5 yards less than the second side, and the third side is 2 yards less
Maru [420]
Let the second side be equal to x Then the first side is x-5 The third side will be x-5-2 = x-7 Therefore you add all the following sides and equate it to 42 yards. Ie x+x+5+x-7 = 42 3x=44 X= 44/3 Therefore the second sides length is 44/3 The first sides length is 44/3 -5 = 29/3 The third side is 44/3 -7 = 23/3

If f(x)=3x-2,find f(8)-f(-5)
Alexandra [31]

To find both f(8) and f(-5), we will need to plug in their values for x and solve for each. Then, we can subtract them to find the final answer.

Finding f(8):

f(8) = 3(8) - 2

f(8) = 24 - 2

f(8) = 22

Finding f(-5):

f(-5) = 3(-5) - 2

f(-5) = -15 - 2

f(-5) = -17

Subtracting f(8) and f(-5):

f(8) - f(-5)

22 - - 17

22 + 17

39

Hope this helps!! :)
