Joaquin is constructing the perpendicular bisector of AB. He opens his compass so that the distance from the two points of the compass is wider
than half the length of AB. What is his next step?
B
O A. Place the point of the compass on the midpoint of AB and draw
an arc in either direction.
O B. Place the point of the compass on point A and draw an arc acre
АВ.
O C. Place the point of the compass on point A and mark where the arc
intersects AB
O D. Place the point of the compass on the midpoint of AB and mark
the points directly above and below the midpoint.

D. Place the point of the compass on the midpoint of AB and mark

the points directly above and below the midpoint.

Step-by-step explanation:

Below are the simple steps to follow to draw a perpendicular bisector of line AB.

First step

Set the compass at the end of one line segment and move the compass so that it would be slightly longer than half of the line AB.

Second step

Set the compass at point A and make some arcs just above line AB.

Third step

Draw an arc from point B with the same compass width.

Fourth step

Carefully set a ruler at the intersection of the arcs and draw the line segment.

hi there!

question 1 answer: p/q can be terminating when q = 5^m * 2^n

question 2 answer: -1 and -1

question 3 answer: -4

question 4 answer: 5/12

hope this : )

the correct answer option is (2x-3)(2x+3).

step-by-step explanation:

we are given the following expression and we are to factorize it:

we are to find such factors that when multiplied they give a result of 36 (9 x 4 = 36) and when added they give a result of 0.

the two such factors of 36 are negative six and postive six.

factorizing the given expression to get:

therefore, the correct factorization of is (2x-3)(2x+3).
