Below represents the proof that the quadrilateral QRST is a parallelogram

<h3>How to prove that QRST is a parallelogram?</h3>

The coordinates are given as:

Q = (-1,-1)

R = (2,9)

S = (-4,5)

T = (-7,-5)

Calculate the length of each side using:

d = \sqrt{(x_2 -x_1)^2 + (y_2 -y_1)^2}

So, we have:

QR = \sqrt{(-1 - 2)^2 + (-1 -9)^2} = \sqrt{109}

RS = \sqrt{(-4 - 2)^2 + (5 - 9)^2} = \sqrt{52}

ST = \sqrt{(-7 + 4)^2 + (-5 - 5)^2} = \sqrt{109}

TQ = \sqrt{(-7 + 1)^2 + (-5 + 1)^2} = \sqrt{52}

The above computations show that opposite sides are equal.

Next, we determine the slope of each side using:

m = \frac{y_2 -y_1}{x_2 -x_1}

So, we have:

QR = \frac{9 + 1}{2 + 3} = \frac{10}3

RS = \frac{5-9}{-4 - 2} = \frac{2}3

ST = \frac{5+5}{-4 + 7} = \frac{10}3

TQ = \frac{-5+1}{-7 + 1} = \frac{2}3

The above computations show that opposite sides are parallel, because they have equal slope

Hence, the quadrilateral QRST is a parallelogram

aleksley [76]

Answer:

680 games

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose that 681 tennis players want to play an elimination tournament.

1st round:

One of 681 players, chosen at random, sits out that round and 680 players play. There will be 340 winners plus one player which sits - 341 players for the next round and 340 games

2nd round:

There will be 170 winners plus one player which sits - 171 players for the next round and 170 games

3rd round:

There will be 85 winners plus one player which sits - 86 players for the next round and 85 games

4th round:

There will be 43 winners - 43 players for the next round and 43 games

5th round:

There will be 21 winners plus one player which sits - 22 players for the next round and 21 games

6th round:

There will be 11 winners  - 11 players for the next round and 11 games

7th round:

There will be 5 winners plus one player which sits - 6 players for the next round and 5 games

8th round:

There will be 3 winners  - 3 players for the next round and 3 games

9th round:

There will be 1 winner plus one player which sits - 2 players for the next round and 1 game

10th round - final:

1 champion and 1 game.

In total,

340 + 170 + 85 + 43 + 21 + 11 + 5 + 3 + 1 + 1 = 680 games

What is the mean for this list of numbers? 19, 22, 24, 45
STALIN [3.7K]

Answer:

27.5

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the mean you basically just add all of the numbers then divide by how many there are.

So, for this problem, 19+22+24+45=110

110/4=27.5

Hope this helped!!
