Write the equation for the perpendicular bisector of a segment that has endpoints (1, –4) and (3, 2).

Question 3 options:


A)
y = –3x – 1


B)
y = –3x + 5


C)
y = 3x + 5


D)
y = –1∕3x – 1∕3

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

D. The m of the segment is 3, perpendicular slope is -1/3 bc their slope product is -1.

Answer 2

The equation of the perpendicular bisector of the segment with endpoints (1, -4) and (3, 2) is y = (-1/3)x - 1/3. The correct option is D.

How to calculate the equation of the line?

To find the equation of the perpendicular bisector of a segment, we need to first find the midpoint of the segment.

The midpoint of the segment with endpoints (1, -4) and (3, 2) is:

[tex](\dfrac{(1+3)}{2} , \dfrac{(-4+2)}{2}) = (2, -1)[/tex]

Now we need to find the slope of the line passing through the two endpoints, which is:

[tex]m = \dfrac{(2 - (-4))} { (3 - 1)} = 3[/tex]

The slope of the perpendicular bisector will be the negative reciprocal of the slope of the segment. So the slope of the perpendicular bisector is:

m = -1/3

Finally, we can use the point-slope form of a line to find the equation of the perpendicular bisector, using the midpoint we found:

y - (-1) = (-1/3)(x - 2)

y + 1 = (-1/3)x + 2/3

y = (-1/3)x + 2/3 - 1

y = (-1/3)x - 1/3

Therefore, the equation of the perpendicular bisector of the segment with endpoints (1, -4) and (3, 2) is y = (-1/3)x - 1/3.

Step-by-step explanation:

A pyramid has a cross-sectional shapes, taken parallel to its base, that are similar to one another.

When we do the cross-section of a pyramid parallel to its base, the cross-section formed will be in the same shape like the base.

Whenever a cross section is done parallel to the base of any pyramid, the resulting shape will be same like the base. As we move up in the pyramid and cross section it, the shape formed will be like the base but with smaller dimensions. But the shape will be the same as the base.

1. Factor the polynomial. (2 polnts)
-3x4 - 9x3 + 15x2
2. Use the grouping method to factor the polynomial below completely. (4 points)
10x3 - 35x2 + 6x - 21

Answers

Answer: 1. 3x^2(-x^2-3x+5). 2. (2x-7)(5x^2+3)

Step-by-step explanation:

(1) Find the greatest common factor - 3x^2. Simplify as much as possible.

(2) Split 10x^3 - 35x^2 and 6x-21 into two separate groups. Factor each group separately to get 5x^2(2x-7) and 3(2x-7). The numbers in the parentheses should be the same for each group - (2x-7). Take the numbers outside of the parentheses and put them together to get (5x^2+3). Your final answer will be (2x-7)(5x^2+3).

1. The required factor of the polynomial is

(-3x²)(x²+3x-5).

2. The required factor of the polynomial using grouping method, the answer is (5x²+3)(2x-7).

What is a polynomial?

"A polynomial is an expression consisting of indeterminates and coefficients, that involves only the operations of addition, subtraction, multiplication, and non-negative integer exponentiation of variables."

What is factorization of a polynomial?

"The factorization of polynomials or polynomial factorization expresses a polynomial with coefficients in a given field or in the integers as the product of irreducible factors with coefficients in the same domain.

There are six different methods to factorizing polynomials. One of those methods is factorization of a polynomial by grouping method."

1. The given polynomial is

[tex]-3x^{4} - 9x^{3} + 15x^{2} \\= - 3x^{2}(x^{2}+3x-5)\\[/tex]

Therefore, by factorizing the given polynomial, we get:

[tex]- 3x^{2}(x^{2}+3x-5)[/tex].

2. The given polynomial is

[tex]10x^{3}-35x^{2} +6x-21[/tex]

We need to factorize it using grouping method.

Therefore,

[tex]10x^{3}-35x^{2} +6x-21\\= 5x^{2}(2x-7)+3(2x-7)\\= (5x^{2} +3)(2x-7)[/tex]

Hence,

1. The required factor of the polynomial is

(-3x²)(x²+3x-5).

2. The required factor of the polynomial using grouping method, the answer is (5x²+3)(2x-7).
