Anyone knows the answer?

a) yes

b) y = -x

c) yes it goes thru the origin (0,0)

Step-by-step explanation:

a) x**2 + y**2 = 17

(-4)**2 + (-1)**2 = 17

16 + 1 = 17 YES

b) the slope of DE is

(y1 - y2)/(x1 - x2)

(-1 -4)/(-4 -1) = -5/-5 = 1,  so a perpendicular segment will have a

slope of - 1/current slope or -1.

The midpoint of DE is

x = (x1 + x2)/2 = (-4 +1)/2 = -3/2

y = (y1 + y2)/2 = (-1 +4)/2 = 3/2 so

y = mx + b

y = -x + b plug in the point (-3/2,3/2)

3/2 = -(-3/2) + b

b = 0 SO y = -x

c) The circle equation dictates that it has no offset so centers around the origin (0,0) and the equation of the bisector y = -x indeed fits (0,0).

the red lines denote the population of the bacteria after 35 hours. that would be 2,409.24. the y-intercept is the blue line which is 800 because that is the starting point. the equation used to make the graph is 800(1.032)^h, where h is the number of hours.
