Question 5 [10 marks]: Find the equation of the line passing through the point (-1,-3) and perpendicular to the line y = 2x - 1. Question 6 [5+5 marks]: Given the points: A(0,5) and B(3,0) (a) Find the distance between A and B and the midpoint of the line segment AB. (b) Find the slope of the line passing through A and B.

a(-3, 1) and b(2, -2) are two points on a straight line. (i) Find the equation of the line ab. ["the line ab" means the straight line that contains the points a and b] (ii) What is the slope of the line ab? (iii) The point c lies on the line ab. The r coordinate of the point c is -8. What is the y coordinate of the point c? (iv) Calculate the distance between the points a and b, correct to 2 decimal places.
