Which of the following equations is the perpendicular bisector of the line AB given: A(3,1) & B(-3,6)
O y = 6/5x + 4
O y = 6/5x + 9/2
O y = 6/5x + 7/2
O y = -5/6x + 7/2

C. y = ⁶/5x + ⁷/2

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the slope of line AB that goes through A(3, 1) and B(-3, 6):

.

Slope of line AB = -⅚.

The slope of the line that is a perpendicular bisector of line AB will be a negative reciprocal of the slope of line AB.

Thus:

Negative reciprocal of -⅚ = ⁶/5. (Reciprocal of ⅚, also the sign will change from positive to negative).

Next is to find the y-intercept, b, of the line.

To do this, you need to find the midpoint where the two lines intersect:

Therefore,

Midpoint (M) of AB, for A(3, 1) and B(-3, 6) is given as:

Let

Thus:

Substitute x = 0, y = ⁷/2, and m = ⁶/5 into y = mx + b and find the value of b.

⁷/2 = ⁶/5(0) + b

⁷/2 = b

b = ⁷/2

The slope (m) and the y-intercept, b, of the line we are looking for are ⁶/5 and ⁷/2, respectively.

Therefore, substitute m = ⁶/5 and b = ⁷/2 into y = mx + b.

y = ⁶/5x + ⁷/2

The equation that is the perpendicular bisector of the line AB is y = ⁶/5x + ⁷/2.

step-by-step explanation:

8^1/3=2

use an equation of ratios to determine the amount of gas needed to fill the tank.

    0.2             0.8

  =    

288.75             x

                                                              231 gal

so, 0.2x = (0.8)(288.75 gal), and x = = 1155 gal.

                                                                0.2

it would take 1155 gal. to fill the tank.

the cost would be

1155 gal         $3

* = $3465   (answer)

      1           1 gal

hope this you
