Find an equation of the line that is the perpendicular bisector of the line segment joining the points (6,2) and (18,6)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

y= -3x +40

Step-by-step explanation:

Properties of perpendicular bisector:

• perpendicular to the given line

• cuts through the center of the given line

The equation of a line can be written in the form of y=mx +c, where m is the gradient and c is the y -intercept.

Let's find the gradient of the given line first.

[tex]\boxed{gradient = \frac{y1 - y2}{x1 - x2} }[/tex]

Gradient of given line

[tex] = \frac{6 - 2}{18 - 6} [/tex]

[tex] = \frac{4}{12} [/tex]

[tex] = \frac{1}{3} [/tex]

The product of the gradients of perpendicular lines is -1.

m(⅓)= -1

m= -1(3)

m= -3

Substitute m= -3 into the equation:

y= -3x +c

To find the value of c, substitute a pair of coordinates in which the perpendicular bisector passes through into the equation. Since perpendicular bisectors passes through the center of the segment, we can find the point in which the perpendicular bisector passes through using the mid- point formula.

[tex]\boxed{midpoint = ( \frac{x1 + x2}{2} , \frac{y1 + y2}{2} )}[/tex]

Midpoint

[tex] = ( \frac{6 + 18}{2} , \frac{6 + 2}{2} )[/tex]

[tex] = ( \frac{24}{2} , \frac{8}{2} )[/tex]

[tex] = (12,4)[/tex]

y= -3x +c

when x= 12, y= 4,

4= -3(12) +c

4= -36 +c

c= 4 +36

c= 40

Thus, the equation of the perpendicular bisector is y= -3x +40.

Answers

Answer:  Choice C

Work Shown:

[tex]7x^2*\sqrt{2x^4}*6\sqrt{2x^{12}}\\\\7*6x^2*\sqrt{2x^4*2x^{12}}\\\\42x^2*\sqrt{4x^{4+12}}\\\\42x^2*\sqrt{4x^{16}}\\\\42x^2*\sqrt{(2x^8)^2}\\\\42x^2*(2x^8)\\\\42*2x^{2+8}\\\\84x^{10}\\\\[/tex]

So that's why the answer is choice C

The requirement that x is nonzero isn't technically necessary. The original expression simplifies to choice C even when x = 0 is the case. Also, we don't have issues such as division by zero errors that could arise. It's a bit curious why your teacher put in that condition.

Answer:

C.

Step-by-step explanation:

7x²×sqrt(2x⁴)×6×sqrt(2x¹²)

we see right away that as constant multiplication factor we have 7×6 = 42.

and then we get from each sqrt expression a sqrt(2), which leads to sqrt²(2) = 2 and therefore 42×2=84.

the only answer option with 84 is C.

now, to be completely sure, and to get some practice, let's look at the other parts :

sqrt(2x⁴) = sqrt(2)×sqrt(x⁴) = sqrt(2)×x²

sqrt(2x¹²) = sqrt(2)×sqrt(x¹²) = sqrt(2)×x⁶

=>

7x²×sqrt(2)×x²×6×sqrt(2)×x⁶ =7×6×2×x²×x²×x⁶ = 84x¹⁰

perfect. C is confirmed.

Answer:

  3 ⇒ 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Apparently "a = b" in this case is used to mean f(a) = b. It appears as though the function is ...

  f(x) = x(x+1)

Then f(3) = 3(3+1) = 3·4 = 12

IMO this is a poor use of the equal sign, which should be reserved for situations where the left side expression has the same value as the right side expression.

total sell = 50 * 3 = tk 150

total lose = 180 - 150 = tk 30

Answer:

[tex]\text{Part A.}\\(-\frac{1}{8},0),\\(\frac{3}{2},0)\\\\\text{Part B.}\\(\frac{11}{16},\frac{169}{16})\\\\\text{Part C.}[/tex]

Draw a parabola concave down with vertex at [tex](\frac{11}{16},\frac{169}{16})[/tex]. Since the leading coefficient of the equation is -16, the parabola should appear thinner than its parent function [tex]y=x^2[/tex]. Ensure that the parabola passes through the points [tex](\(-\frac{1}{8},0)[/tex] and [tex](\frac{3}{2},0)[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A:

The x-intercepts of a function occur at [tex]y=0[/tex]. Therefore, let [tex]y=0[/tex] and solve for all values of [tex]x[/tex]:

[tex]0=-16x^2+22x+3[/tex]

The quadratic formula states that the real and nonreal solutions to a quadratic in standard form [tex]ax^2+bx+c[/tex] is equal to [tex]x=\frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}[/tex].

In [tex]-16x^2+22x+3[/tex], assign:

[tex]a\implies -16[/tex] [tex]b\implies 22[/tex] [tex]c\implies 3[/tex]

Therefore, the solutions to this quadratic are:

[tex]x=\frac{-22\pm\sqrt{22^2-4(-16)(3)}}{2(-16)},\\x=\frac{-22\pm 26}{-32},\\\begin{cases}x=\frac{-22+26}{-32}=\frac{4}{-32}=\boxed{-\frac{1}{8}},\\x=\frac{-22-26}{-32}=\frac{-48}{-32}=\boxed{\frac{3}{2}}\end{cases}[/tex]

The x-intercepts are then [tex]\boxed{(-\frac{1}{8},0)}[/tex] and [tex]\boxed{(\frac{3}{2},0)}[/tex].

Part B:

The a-term is negative and therefore the parabola is concave down. Thus, the vertex will be the maximum of the graph. The x-coordinate of the vertex of a quadratic in standard form [tex]ax^2+bx+c[/tex] is equal to [tex]x=\frac{-b}{2a}[/tex]. Using the same variables we assigned earlier, we get:

[tex]x=\frac{-22}{2(-16)}=\frac{-22}{-32}=\frac{11}{16}[/tex]

Substitute this into the equation of the parabola to get the y-value:

[tex]f(11/16)=-16(11/16)^2+22(11/16)+3,\\f(11/16)=\frac{169}{16}[/tex]

Therefore, the vertex of the parabola is located at [tex]\boxed{(\frac{11}{16},\frac{169}{16})}[/tex]

A quality control inspector has drawn a sample of 18 light bulbs from a recent production lot. If the number of defective bulbs is 1 or more, the lot fails inspection. Suppose 30% of the bulbs in the lot are defective.

Required:
What is the probability that the lot will pass inspection?

Answers

Answer:

0.0016 = 0.16% probability that the lot will pass inspection.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each bulb, there are only two possible outcomes. Either it is defective, or it is not. The probability of a bulb being defective is independent of any other bulb, which means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

In which [tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]

And p is the probability of X happening.

Sample of 18 light bulbs

This means that [tex]n = 18[/tex]

30% of the bulbs in the lot are defective.

This means that [tex]p = 0.3[/tex]

What is the probability that the lot will pass inspection?

It will pass inspection if there are no defective bulbs, that is, we have to find P(X = 0). So

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{18,0}.(0.3)^{0}.(0.7)^{18} = 0.0016[/tex]

0.0016 = 0.16% probability that the lot will pass inspection.

Find an equation of the tangent to the curve at the point corresponding to the given value of the parameter. x=t−t−1, y=1+t2, t=1

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First, I would find the point on the curve. By substituting t=1, I get (x, y). Next, I will try to eliminate the t and make a xy equation. In this case, the t's will cancel out in 'x=t-t-1" which wouldnt make this a curve. To find the equation of the tangent line, find the deretitave of the xy equation, and subsitute x in to find the slope at that point. Next, use point slope form to find the equation at the point.

A = 800(1.75) ^t

A = 800(1.075)^ t
A = 800 + (1.075)^ t

Answers

Answer:

A = 800( 1.075)^(t)

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for interest is

A = p (1+r/n) ^ nt   where p is the principle, r is the interest rate, n is the number of times per year  and t is the years

A = 800( 1+ .075/1)^(1*t)

A = 800( 1.075)^(t)
