whats the equation for the perpendicular bisector of the line segment whose endpoints are (-5,3) and (3,7)?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The equation of perpendicular bisector of the line segment passing through  (-5,3) and (3,7) is: [tex]y = -2x+3[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given points are:

(-5,3) and (3,7)

The perpendicular bisector of line segment formed by given points will pass through the mid-point of the line segment.

First of all we have to find the slope and mid-point of given line

Here

(x1,y1) = (-5,3)

(x2,y2) = (3,7)

The slope will be:

[tex]m = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\m = \frac{7-3}{3+5}\\m = \frac{4}{8}\\m = \frac{1}{2}[/tex]

The mid-point will be:

[tex](x,y) = (\frac{x_1+x_2}{2} , \frac{y_1+y_2}{2})\\ = (\frac{-5+3}{2},\frac{3+7}{2})\\= (\frac{-2}{2},\frac{10}{2})\\=(-1,5)[/tex]

Let m1 be the slope of the perpendicular bisector

Then using, "Product of slopes of perpendicular lines is -1"

[tex]m.m_1 = -1\\\frac{1}{2}.m_1 = -1\\m_1 = -1*2\\m_1 = -2[/tex]

We have to find the equation of a line with slope -2 and passing through (-1,5)

The slope-intercept form is given by:

[tex]y = mx+b\\y = -2x+b[/tex]

Putting the point (-1,5) in the equation

[tex]5 = -2(-1)+b\\5 = 2+b\\b = 5-2\\b = 3[/tex]

The final equation is:

[tex]y = -2x+3[/tex]

Hence,

The equation of perpendicular bisector of the line segment passing through  (-5,3) and (3,7) is: [tex]y = -2x+3[/tex]

An angle measures 3.8° more than the measure of its complementary angle. What is the measure of each angle?

Answers

Answer: 41.2 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Complementary angles are angles that add to 90 degrees, so if they were equal, they would be 45 and 45, but since one is 3.8 more, it is 45+3.8 = 48.8 and the other, to add to 90 degrees is 90-48.8 = 41.2

Willie and anjali each improved their yards by planting daylilies and ivy. They bought their supplies from the same store. Willie spent $116 on 12 daylilies and 4 pots of ivy. Anjali spent $60 on 6 daylilies and 3 pots of ivy. Find the cost of one daylily and the cost of one pot of ivy

Answers

Answer:the cost of one day lily = $9 and cost of one pot of ivy = $2

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1

let day lilies be rep as d

and ivy be represented as i

So that The expression for what Willie spent on  12 day lilies and 4 pots of ivy = $116 be

12 d+ 4i = 116 ---- equation 1

and for Anjali spending  $60 on 6 day lilies and 3 pots of ivy be

6d+ 3i = $60------ equation 2

Step 2 --- Solving

 12 d+ 4i = 116 ---- equation 1

6d+ 3i = $60------ equation 2

Multiply equation 2 by (2) and subtracting equation 1  from it

12d+ 6i= 120

--12 d+ 4i = 116

2 i= 4

i = 4/2 = 2

TO find d, putting the value of i = 2 in equation 1 and solving

12d+ 4(2) = 116

12d= 116-8

12d= 108

d= 108/12= 9

Therefore the cost of one day lily = $9 and cost of one pot of ivy = $2

1. How much is their bill after the coupon has been applied?
2. With the coupon applied, what is their new total (including the tax)?
3. With their new total, Billy and Tom can now determine the tip for their server. What is the final total, including the tip?
4. What will Billy and Tom each have to pay to split the bill evenly?

Please answer labeled with numbers! thankyou!

Answers

Answer:

1. $85

2. $90.10

3.$108.12

4.$54.06

Step-by-step explanation:

100-15=85 (15% of 100 is 15)

6 percent of 85 is 5.10. So 85 + 5.10=90.10

20 percent of 90.10 is 18.02. So add that to the total. 90.10+18.02=108.12

Now divide by 2 to get how much they each will pay 108.12/2 = 54.06

(2,6) (-4,-2)

Answers

Answer:

y = 8/6x + 10/3

Step-by-step explanation:

You find the slope (m) first which is

Change of y over change of x

(6) - (-2)   over   (2)- (-4)

8/6 = m

Then you plug it into the equation y = mx + b

y = (8/6)x + b

Now you pick any of the set of points to plug in for x and y to solve for b

(6) = (8/6)(2) + b

6 = 8/3 + b

b = 10/3

Then plug into the equation for just m and b to get the equation of the line that passes thru both sets of points.

y = 8/6x + 10/3

I have 10 goats, n of which are male. I need to choose 2 of them to make a casserole.

The probability both of my choices are male is 2/15


Use the information to form an appropriate quadratic equation N square + an + b = 0, specifying the constants a and b.

Answers

Answer: There are 4 male goats.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that n of the 10 goats are male.

The probability that in a random selection, the selected goat is a male, is equal to the quotient between the number of male goats (n) and the total number of goats (10)

The probability is;

p = n/10

Now the total number of goats is 9, and the number of male goats is n -1

then the probability of selecting a male goat again is:

q = (n-1)/9

The joint probability (the probability that the two selected goats are male) is equal to the product of the individual probabilities, this is

P = p*q = (n/10)*((n-1)/9)

And we know that this probability is equal to 2/15

Then we have:

(n/10)*((n-1)/9) = 2/15

(n*(n-1))/90 = 2/15

n*(n-1) = 90*2/15 = 12

n^2 - n = 12

n^2 - n - 12  = 0

This is a quadratic equation, we can find the solutions if we use Bhaskara's formula:

For an equation:

a*x^2  + b*x + c =  0

The two solutions are given by:

[tex]x = \frac{-b +- \sqrt{b^2 - 4*a*c} }{2*a}[/tex]

For our case, the solutions will be:

[tex]n = \frac{1 +- \sqrt{(-1)^2 - 4*1*(-12)} }{2*1 } = \frac{1+- 7}{2}[/tex]

The two solutions are:

n = (1 - 7)/2 = -3    (this solution does not make sense, we can not have a negative number of goats)

The other solution is:

n = (1 + 7)/2 = 4

This solution does make sense, this means that we have 4 male goats.

Trigonometric Ratios

The ratios of the sides of a right triangle are called trigonometric ratios. The longest side of a right triangle is called the hypotenuse and the other two sides are called the legs.  

Selecting any of the acute angles as a reference, it has an adjacent side and an opposite side. The trigonometric ratios are defined upon those sides as follows:

Cosine Ratio

[tex]\displaystyle \cos\theta=\frac{\text{adjacent leg}}{\text{hypotenuse}}[/tex]

Sine Ratio

[tex]\displaystyle \sin\theta=\frac{\text{opposite leg}}{\text{hypotenuse}}[/tex]

Consider the angle of θ=30°, then we can write:

[tex]\displaystyle \cos 30^\circ=\frac{x}{12\sqrt{3}}[/tex]

Solving for x:

[tex]x=12\sqrt{3}\cos 30^\circ[/tex]

Since:

[tex]\cos 30^\circ=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}[/tex]

Then:

[tex]x=12\sqrt{3}\cdot \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}[/tex]

[tex]x = 18[/tex]

Now apply the sine:

[tex]\displaystyle \sin 30^\circ=\frac{y}{12\sqrt{3}}[/tex]

Solving for y:

[tex]y=12\sqrt{3}\sin 30^\circ[/tex]

Since:

[tex]\sin 30^\circ=\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

Then:

[tex]y=12\sqrt{3}\cdot \frac{1}{2}[/tex]

[tex]y = 6\sqrt{3}[/tex]

Answer:

[tex]x = 18[/tex]

[tex]y = 6\sqrt{3}[/tex]

Lines AB, CD, and LK intersect as shown in the diagram . Find M

Answers

the last one is the answer

The measurement of ∠ CSK = 110.2°

What is Parallel line?

Parallel lines are those lines that are equidistant from each other and never meet, no matter how much they may be extended in either directions.

Given that Lines AB, CD, and LK intersects at R and S respectively,

m∠LRB = (3x - 2)° and m∠RSC = (2x - 5)

m∠LRB = m∠CSK  → (Alternate exterior angles)

m∠CSK + m∠RSC = 180°  → (Linear pair angles)

Therefore, m∠LRB + m∠RSC = 180°

(3x - 2)° + (2x - 5) =  180°

5x - 7 = 180°

5x = 187°

x = 37.4°

So, m∠CSK =  (3x - 2)°

(3x - 2)° = 3*37.4 - 2

m∠CSK = 110.2°

Hence, The measurement of ∠ CSK = 110.2°
