ABCD is a rectangle and A and B are the points (4,2) and (2,8) respectively. Given that the equation of AC is y=x-2, find a) Equation of BC b) coordinates of B and C

A(4,2), B(2,8)

AC: y=x-2

Point point form for a line through (a,b) and (c,d) is (c-a)(y-b)=(d-b)(x-a)

AB is  (2 - 4)(y - 2) = (8-2)(x-4)

-2(y - 2)=6(x-4)

y - 2 = -3(x-4)

y = -3x + 14

BC is perpendicular through B, so slope 1/3 and we calculate the constant as y-(1/3)x:

y = (1/3) x  + (8 - (1/3)(2) ) = (1/3) x + 22/3

a)  BC is  y =  (1/3) x + 22/3

C is the meet of AC and BC,

x - 2 = (1/3) x + 22/3

3x - 6 = x + 22

2x = 28

x = 14

y = x-2 = 12

Check: y = (1/3)x + 22/3 = (14+22)/3 = 36/3 = 12  good

C(14,12)

The remaining corner is D.   We have A-B=D-C or

D = A+C-B+C = (4,2)+(14,12)-(2,8) = (16, 6)

b) B(2,8) [given, but asked for]  C(14,12), D(16,6)

725 parts per hour.

step-by-step explanation:

hi there, this answer is actually really simple.

you can set it up as 1450/2 or 3625/5 to find the answer.

they want to know how much per hour is being made, so you just divide.

1450/2=725.

and that's how many are produced per hour.

hope this . : )

answer: the value should be used for i in the formula of calculation the monthly payment , the interest rate per period is 0.85.

step-by-step explanation:

the given rate of interest i= 85%

in calculating the monthly payment for a loan with an interest rate compounded monthly, the value of the interest rate per period we use in the formula must be in decimal form.

to convert it in decimal, we divide it by 100, we get

hence, the value should be used for i in the formula of calculation the monthly payment , the interest rate per period is 0.85.
