Segment MN has endpoints M(3, 6) and N(7, 2). Use the point-slope form to write the equation of the perpendicular bisector of segment MN.

OpenStudy (barrycarter):

The slope of MN is rise over run or -4/4 or -1. The slope of the perpendicular m is -1/(slope of MN) or 1. The point between M and N is (5,4). So we're looking for a line with slope 1 that hits (5,4). That would be y = x-1
