Topic: Graphs Coordinate Geometry

$m = \frac{-1 - 5}{2 - (-3)} = \frac{-6}{5} = -1.2$
$d = \sqrt{(-1-4)^2 + (6-(-2))^2} = \sqrt{(-5)^2 + 8^2} = \sqrt{25 + 64} = \sqrt{89} \approx 9.43$
$M = (\frac{x_R + x_S}{2}, \frac{y_R + y_S}{2}) \Rightarrow 2 = \frac{-1 + x_S}{2} \Rightarrow x_S = 5$ ; $3 = \frac{7 + y_S}{2} \Rightarrow y_S = -1$ . Point $S(5, -1)$ .
$y - 1 = -\frac{2}{3}(x - 6) \Rightarrow y = -\frac{2}{3}x + 4 + 1 \Rightarrow y = -\frac{2}{3}x + 5$ .
Parallel means $m = 4$ . $y = 4x + 7$ .
$2y = 3x + 12 \Rightarrow y = \frac{3}{2}x + 6$ . Gradient $m_1 = \frac{3}{2}$ . Perpendicular gradient $m_2 = -\frac{2}{3}$ .
$0 = 3x + 2 \Rightarrow 3x = -2 \Rightarrow x = -\frac{2}{3}$ . Point $(-\frac{2}{3}, 0)$ .
$KL = \sqrt{(0-2)^2 + (1-5)^2} = \sqrt{4 + 16} = \sqrt{20}$ . $KM = \sqrt{(4-2)^2 + (1-5)^2} = \sqrt{4 + 16} = \sqrt{20}$ . Since $KL = KM$ , $K$ is equidistant.
$C = 10 + 2g$
(a) First 2kg = $\$ 5 $. Remaining 3kg =$ 3 \times 3 = $9 $. Total =$ 5 + 9 = $14 $. (b)$ 23 = 5 + 3(w - 2) \Rightarrow 18 = 3(w - 2) \Rightarrow 6 = w - 2 \Rightarrow w = 8\text{ kg}$.
$18 = a(3)^2 \Rightarrow 18 = 9a \Rightarrow a = 2$ .
$5 = \frac{k}{4} \Rightarrow k = 20$ . If $y = 2$ , $2 = \frac{20}{x} \Rightarrow x = 10$ . Point $(10, 2)$ .
$u_{old} = kv^2$ . $v_{new} = 1.2v$ . $u_{new} = k(1.2v)^2 = 1.44kv^2 = 1.44u_{old}$ . Increase = $44\%$ .
A curve (parabola) starting from $(0,0)$ and concave upwards, as distance increases quadratically with time during uniform acceleration.
X-intercept: $0 = 12 - \frac{24}{x} \Rightarrow \frac{24}{x} = 12 \Rightarrow x = 2$ . Point $(2, 0)$ . Y-intercept: $x=0$ is undefined (asymptote). No y-intercept.
$2x - 3 = -x + 6 \Rightarrow 3x = 9 \Rightarrow x = 3$ . $y = 2(3) - 3 = 3$ . Point $(3, 3)$ .
Midpoint = $(\frac{1+5}{2}, \frac{2+4}{2}) = (3, 3)$ .
Midpoint $M = (\frac{-2+4}{2}, \frac{4+6}{2}) = (1, 5)$ . Gradient $PQ = \frac{6-4}{4-(-2)} = \frac{2}{6} = \frac{1}{3}$ . Perpendicular gradient = $-3$ . Eq: $y - 5 = -3(x - 1) \Rightarrow y = -3x + 8$ .
$XY = \sqrt{(6-0)^2 + (0-0)^2} = 6$ . $YZ = \sqrt{(3-6)^2 + (3\sqrt{3}-0)^2} = \sqrt{9 + 27} = \sqrt{36} = 6$ . $XZ = \sqrt{(3-0)^2 + (3\sqrt{3}-0)^2} = \sqrt{9 + 27} = \sqrt{36} = 6$ . All sides equal, therefore equilateral.
Gradient $L_1 = \frac{7-3}{4-2} = 2$ . Perpendicular gradient = $-\frac{1}{2}$ . Midpoint = $(3, 5)$ . Eq: $y - 5 = -\frac{1}{2}(x - 3) \Rightarrow y = -\frac{1}{2}x + 1.5 + 5 \Rightarrow y = -\frac{1}{2}x + 6.5$ .
