Find an equation for the perpendicular bisector of the line segment whose endpoints
are (-1,5) and (-7, -7).

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The equation of the perpendicular bisector is y =  [tex]\frac{-1}{2}[/tex] x - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The form of the linear equation is y = m x + b, where

m is the slopeb is the y-intercept

The rule of the slope is m = [tex]\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}[/tex] , where

(x1, y1) and (x2, y2) are two points on the lineThe rule of the mid-point is M = ([tex]\frac{x1+x2}{2},\frac{y1+y2}{2}[/tex])The product of the slopes of the perpendicular lines is -1, that means if the slope of one is m, then the slope of the other is [tex]\frac{-1}{m}[/tex] (we reciprocal m and change its sign).

∵ A line passes through points (-1, 5) and (-7, -7)

x1 = -1 ad y1 = 5

x2 = -7 and y2 = -7

→ Use the rule of the slope above to find the slope of the line

∵ m = [tex]\frac{-7-5}{-7--1}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{-12}{-7+1}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{-12}{-6}[/tex] = 2

m = 2

→ Reciprocal the value of m and change its sign to find the slope of

  the line perpendicular line

m⊥ = [tex]\frac{-1}{2}[/tex]

→ Substitute in the form of the equation above

∵ y = [tex]\frac{-1}{2}[/tex] x + b

∵ The ⊥ line is also the bisector of the given line, find the mid-point

   of the given line because it is also lying on the ⊥ line

∵ M = ([tex]\frac{-1+-7}{2},\frac{5+-7}{2}[/tex]) =  ([tex]\frac{-8}{2},\frac{-2}{2}[/tex]) = (-4, -1)

M = (-4, -1)

→ Substitute the coordinates of M in the equation of the ⊥ line above

∵ x = -4 and y = -1

∴ -1 = [tex]\frac{-1}{2}[/tex] (-4) + b

∴ -1 = 2 + b

→ Subtract 2 from both sides

-3 = b

→ Substitute the value of b in the equation

∴  y =  [tex]\frac{-1}{2}[/tex] x + -3

∴ y =  [tex]\frac{-1}{2}[/tex] x - 3

The equation of the perpendicular bisector is y =  [tex]\frac{-1}{2}[/tex] x - 3

marco needs to buy some cat food. At the nearest store, 3 bags of cat food cost 13.50. How much would Marco spend on 5 bags of cat food​

Answers

Answer:

$22.50

Step-by-step explanation:

if 3 bags of cat food = 13.50, divide 13.5 by 3 to get the cost of one bag, which is $4.50.

since hes getting 5, we can use 13.50 once and then the price of one bag (4.5) twice for the other two.

so that would be 13.5 + 4.5 + 4.5 = $22.50

hope this helped :)

Answer:

cost of three bags of cat food = 13.50

cost of 1 cat food = 13.50/3 = 4.50

cost of 5 cat food = 4.50*5 = 22.5

Answers

Answer:

Equations with one solution: [tex]-2(x-3) = 2x-6[/tex]

Equations with no solution:

[tex]6(x+5) = 6x+11\\5(x-2) = 5x-7[/tex]

Equations with infinite many solutions: [tex]-3(x-4) = -3x+12[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We will solve each equation to see if it has one solution, no solution or infinite many solutions.

An equation where the value of variable can be found has one solution.

An equation with no solution has both sides different.

An equation with infinite solution will have both sides equal after solution(number)

So,

Equation 1:

5(x-2) = 5x-7

[tex]5(x-2) = 5x-7\\5x-10 = 5x-7\\5x-5x = -7+10\\0 = 3[/tex]

As both sides are not equal, equation has no solution.

Equation 2:

[tex]-3(x-4) = -3x+12\\-3x+12 = -3x+12\\-3x+3x = -12+12\\0=0\\[/tex]

As both sides are equal the equation has infinite many solutions.

Equation 3:

[tex]-2(x-3) = 2x-6\\-2x+6 = 2x-6\\-2x-2x = -6-6\\-4x = -12\\\frac{-4x}{-4} = \frac{-12}{-4}\\x = 3[/tex]

As x=3, the equation has only one solution.

Equation 4:

[tex]6(x+5) = 6x+11\\6x+30 = 6x+11\\6x-6x+30 = 11\\30 =11[/tex]

The equation has no solution.

Hence,

Equations with one solution: [tex]-2(x-3) = 2x-6[/tex]

Equations with no solution:

[tex]6(x+5) = 6x+11\\5(x-2) = 5x-7[/tex]

Equations with infinite many solutions: [tex]-3(x-4) = -3x+12[/tex]

In a sale, a shopkeeper reduced the advertised selling price of a dress by 20%. This resulted in a profit of 4% over the cost price of the dress. What percentage profit would the shopkeeper have made if the dress had then been sold at the original selling price?


HELP my dad will kill me if I don't finish this and I'm stuck on this question

Answers

Answer:

30% profit

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount by which the shopkeeper reduced the advertised selling price = 20%

The resulting profit over the cost price = 4%

Let x represent the initial advertised selling price, and let y represent the new selling price, and let c represent the cost price, we have;

x - 20% of x = y

x - x × 20/100 = y

0.8·x = y

y = c + 4% of c = 1.04·c

∴ 0.8·x = 1.04·c

x = 1.04·c/0.8 = 1.3·c

x = 1.3·c = c + 0.3·c = c + 30% of c

x = c + 30% of c

From which we have that the initial advertised selling price, x = The cost price + 30% of the  cost price

Therefore, the initial advertised selling price = The cost price + 30%profit on   cost price.

The shopkeeper would have made 30% profit if the dress had then been sold at the original selling price.

Describe the set of all complex numbers that are at a distance of 2 units from the origin.

Answers

Answer:

The description of the set is [tex]A = \{s\in \mathbb{C}|\|s\| = 2\}[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

From Complex Analysis, we remember that complex numbers are numbers whose form is:

[tex]s = a+i\, b[/tex], [tex]a,b \in \mathbb{R}[/tex] (1)

Where [tex]i = \sqrt{-1}[/tex].

In addition, the distance from the origin is defined by the following Pythagorean identity:

[tex]\|s\| = \sqrt{a^{2}+b^{2}}[/tex] (2)

The following condition must be satisfied:

[tex]\|s\| = 2[/tex]

Then, the set of all complex numbers that are at a distance of 2 units from the origin is described below:

[tex]A = \{s\in \mathbb{C}|\|s\| = 2\}[/tex] (3)

The set of all complex numbers that are at a distance of 2 units from the origin is [tex]\{z\in \mathbb{C} :\text{ }|z|=2\}[/tex]

A complex number, written in rectangular form is

[tex]z=a+ib\\a,b\in \mathbb{R}[/tex]

The distance of a complex number from the origin (the modulus of the complex number, denoted by [tex]|z|[/tex]) is given by the formula

[tex]|z|=\sqrt{a^2+b^2}[/tex]

Since we want all the complex numbers to be at the distance of 2 units from the origin, they must satisfy

[tex]|z|=2[/tex]

thus, the set we are looking for is

[tex]D=\{z\in \mathbb{C} :\text{ }|z|=2\}[/tex]

where [tex]\mathbb{C}[/tex] is the set of all complex numbers

Answers

Answer:

ITS B !!!!!!!!!!!!!

Step-by-step explanation:

The equivalent expression is -9/4 ÷ (-2/3).

Option B is the correct answer.

What is an expression?

An expression is a way of writing a statement with more than two variables or numbers with operations such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.

Example: 2 + 3x + 4y = 7 is an expression.

We have,

Negative 2 and one-fourth divided by negative two-thirds.

This can be written as,

-2(1/4) ÷ (-2/3)

= -9/4 ÷ (-2/3)

= -9/4 x -3/2

= 27/8 _____(A)

Now,

StartFraction 9 over 4 EndFraction divided by three-halves

This can be written as,

9/4 ÷ 3(1/2)

= 9/4 x 2/7

= 18/28 ______(1)

Negative StartFraction 9 over 4 EndFraction divided by (negative two-thirds)

This can be written as,

-9/4 ÷ (-2/3)

= -9/4 x -3/2

= 27/8 ______(2)

Negative StartFraction 9 over 4 EndFraction divided by two-thirds

This can be written as,

-9/4 ÷ 2/3

= -9/4 x 3/2

= -27/8

StartFraction 9 over 4 EndFraction divided by (negative three-halves)

This can be written as,

9/4 ÷ -3(1/2)

= 9/4 x 2/7

= 18/28

Thus,

From (A) and (2),

-9/4 ÷ (-2/3) is the equivalent expression.

The Complex Alternative form to the expression (5[cos(π/4) + i sin(π/4)])^3 is given as: (Option C).

What is a complex Alternate form?

A complex number of equations will take the form x + yi, where x and y are real numbers and i is an indeterminate that satisfies the rule i² = -1.

Hence, the solution to the above is given as follows:

Step 1 - Ludooph's number pi is given as:

π ≈ 3.14159265

Step 2 - Divide  3.14159265/4

= 0.78539816

Step 3

Cos (0.78539816)

= 0.70710678

It is assumed that the trigonometric angle argument is in radians.

Step 4

Divide: 3.14159265 / 4

= 0.78539816

Step 5 - find the Sin of the result of step 4

sin(0.78539816)

= 0.70710678

It is assumed that the trigonometric angle argument is in radians.

Step 6

Multiply i by the result of Step No 5

=  i * 0.70710678

= 0.7071068i

Step 7 - Add the result of step no. 3 and the result of step number 6

= 0.70710678 + 0.7071068i

= 0.7071068+0.7071068i

Step 8 Multiply 5 by the result of step 7

= 5 * (0.7071068+0.7071068i)

= 5 * 0.70710678118655 + 5 * 0.70710678118655i

= 3.53553391+3.53553391i

= 3.53553391 +i(3.53553391)

= 3.5355339+3.5355339i

Step 9 - Exponentiate the results of Step 8 to the third power:

= (3.5355339+3.5355339i) ^ 3

= (5 × ei π/4)3 = 53 × ei 3 × π/4

= 125 × ei 3π/4

= -88.3883476+88.3883476i
