find the point on the y-axis that is equidistant from (6,1) (-2,-3)

Sagot :

Looking the centre of the circle on the y-axis passing through the points (6;1) and  (-2,-3).
The coordinates of the center of this a circle are equal y-intercept of line segment bisector.

[tex](x-6)^2+(y-1)^2=(x+2)^2+(y+3)^2\\\\x^2-12x+36+y^2-2y+1=x^2+4x+4+y^2+6y+9\\-12x-2y+37=4x+6y+13\\-2y-6y=4x+12x+13-37\\-8y=16x-24\ \ \ \ \ |:(-8)\\y=-2x+3\\\\Answer:(0;\ 3)[/tex]
