Question

Points A and B have coordinates (7,-3) and (1,9) respectively. Find: 1) the slope of AB 2) the equation of the perpendicular bisector of the line segment AB 3) the value of p if (-2,p) lies on it

Answer 1

Answer:

solved

Step-by-step explanation:

A = (7,-3)  , B = (1,9)

1) the slope of AB = m =  12/-6 = - 2

2) the equation of the perpendicular bisector of the line segment AB

-1/m = 1/2

mid point = ( 4,3)

equation : y-3 = x/2 - 2

y = x/2 + 1

3) the value of p if (-2,p) lies on it

p = -2/2 + 1 = 0

Answer 2

Answer:

solved

Step-by-step explanation:

A = (7,-3), B = (1,9)

1) the slope of AB = m = 12/-6 = - 2

2) the equation of the perpendicular bisector of the line segment AB

-1/m = 1/2

mid point =(4,3)

equation : y-3 = x/2 - 2

y = x/2 + 1

3) the value of p if (-2,p) lies on it

p=-2/2 + 1 = 0
