4. The equation of the perpendicular bisector is y = $\frac{3}{4}$ x - $\frac{1}{8}$

5. The equation of the perpendicular bisector is y = - 2x + 16

6. The equation of the perpendicular bisector is y = $-\frac{3}{2}$ x + $\frac{7}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets revise some important rules

The product of the slopes of the perpendicular lines is -1, that means if the slope of one of them is m, then the slope of the other is $-\frac{1}{m}$ (reciprocal m and change its sign)The perpendicular bisector of a line means another line perpendicular to it and intersect it in its mid-pointThe formula of the slope of a line is $m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}$ The mid point of a segment whose end points are $(x_{1},y_{1})$ and $(x_{2},y_{2})$ is $(\frac{x_{1}+x_{2}}{2},\frac{y_{1}+y_{2}}{2})$ The slope-intercept form of the linear equation is y = m x + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept

∵ The line passes through (7 , 2) and (4 , 6)

- Use the formula of the slope to find its slope

∵ $x_{1}$ = 7 and $x_{2}$ = 4

∵ $y_{1}$ = 2 and $y_{2}$ = 6

∴ $m=\frac{6-2}{4-7}=\frac{4}{-3}$

- Reciprocal it and change its sign to find the slope of the ⊥ line

∴ The slope of the perpendicular line = $\frac{3}{4}$

- Use the rule of the mid-point to find the mid-point of the line

∴ The mid-point = $(\frac{7+4}{2},\frac{2+6}{2})$

∴ The mid-point = $(\frac{11}{2},\frac{8}{2})=(\frac{11}{2},4)$

- Substitute the value of the slope in the form of the equation

∵ y = $\frac{3}{4}$ x + b

- To find b substitute x and y in the equation by the coordinates

of the mid-point

∵ 4 = $\frac{3}{4}$ × $\frac{11}{2}$ + b

∴ 4 = $\frac{33}{8}$ + b

- Subtract $\frac{33}{8}$ from both sides

∴ $-\frac{1}{8}$ = b

∴ y = $\frac{3}{4}$ x - $\frac{1}{8}$

∴ The equation of the perpendicular bisector is y = $\frac{3}{4}$ x - $\frac{1}{8}$

∵ The line passes through (8 , 5) and (4 , 3)

- Use the formula of the slope to find its slope

∵ $x_{1}$ = 8 and $x_{2}$ = 4

∵ $y_{1}$ = 5 and $y_{2}$ = 3

∴ $m=\frac{3-5}{4-8}=\frac{-2}{-4}=\frac{1}{2}$

- Reciprocal it and change its sign to find the slope of the ⊥ line

∴ The slope of the perpendicular line = -2

- Use the rule of the mid-point to find the mid-point of the line

∴ The mid-point = $(\frac{8+4}{2},\frac{5+3}{2})$

∴ The mid-point = $(\frac{12}{2},\frac{8}{2})$

∴ The mid-point = (6 , 4)

- Substitute the value of the slope in the form of the equation

∵ y = - 2x + b

- To find b substitute x and y in the equation by the coordinates

of the mid-point

∵ 4 = -2 × 6 + b

∴ 4 = -12 + b

- Add 12 to both sides

∴ 16 = b

∴ y = - 2x + 16

∴ The equation of the perpendicular bisector is y = - 2x + 16

∵ The line passes through (6 , 1) and (0 , -3)

- Use the formula of the slope to find its slope

∵ $x_{1}$ = 6 and $x_{2}$ = 0

∵ $y_{1}$ = 1 and $y_{2}$ = -3

∴ $m=\frac{-3-1}{0-6}=\frac{-4}{-6}=\frac{2}{3}$

- Reciprocal it and change its sign to find the slope of the ⊥ line

∴ The slope of the perpendicular line = $-\frac{3}{2}$

- Use the rule of the mid-point to find the mid-point of the line

∴ The mid-point = $(\frac{6+0}{2},\frac{1+-3}{2})$

∴ The mid-point = $(\frac{6}{2},\frac{-2}{2})$

∴ The mid-point = (3 , -1)

- Substitute the value of the slope in the form of the equation

∵ y = $-\frac{3}{2}$ x + b

- To find b substitute x and y in the equation by the coordinates

of the mid-point

∵ -1 = $-\frac{3}{2}$ × 3 + b

∴ -1 = $-\frac{9}{2}$ + b

- Add $\frac{9}{2}$ to both sides

∴ $\frac{7}{2}$ = b

∴ y = $-\frac{3}{2}$ x + $\frac{7}{2}$

∴ The equation of the perpendicular bisector is y = $-\frac{3}{2}$ x + $\frac{7}{2}$
