JK is formed by J(-12, 3) and K(8,-5). If line r is the perpendicular bisector of JK, write
an equation for r in slope-intercept form??

The required equation of line "r" in slope-intercept form is y = 5/2x + 15

First, we need to find the equation of a line in slope-intercept form as

y = mx + b

m is the slope of the line

b is the y-intercept

Given the coordinate points  J(-12, 3) and K(8,-5)

Get the slope of the line

Slope  = -5-3/8+12

Slope = -8/20

Slope - -2/5

Slope of the line "r" perpendicular is 5/2

Get the y-intercept of line r

Substitute (8, -5) and m = 5/2 into y = mx + b

-5 = -5/2(8) + b

-5 = -20 + b

b = 15

Hence the required equation of line "r" in slope-intercept form is y = 5/2x + 15

Given:

JK is formed by J(-12, 3) and K(8,-5).

Line r is the perpendicular bisector of JK.

To find:

The equation of line r is slope intercept form.

Solution:

Line r is the perpendicular bisector of JK. So, it passes through the midpoint of J and K.

Slope of JK is

Product of slopes of two perpendicular lines is -1.

The slope of perpendicular line r is and it passes through (-2,-1). So, the equation of perpendicular line is

Therefore, the equation of line r is .
