Find the equation of the line that is the perpendicular bisector of the segment that connects the points (3,6) and (-2,4)

Question

anonymous · Answer

$$(y^2 - y^1) \over (x^2 - x^1)$$ to find slope

y-y1=m(x-x1) to find equation of the line

Flip numerator/denominator and sign to find perpendicular lines

anonymous · Answer

perpendicular bisector of the segment is nerd talk for "find the perpendicular line" im assuming

anonymous · Answer

slope= 2/5
y-6=2/5 (x-3)
y=2/5x +24/5 ?
Is that all i have to do?

anonymous · Answer

that is the line that runs through the points given in the problem, they want to you find one that runs perpendicular to it

anonymous · Answer

I cant remember, which part do i flip?

anonymous · Answer

m, or the slope

anonymous · Answer

so -5/2 is the new slope

anonymous · Answer

ok thx
