Answer:
slope formula

Explanation:
1- Slope of DE:
Assume point D is (x1, y1) and point E is (x2, y2). To get the slope of DE, we will substitute with the given points in the following formula:
slope of DE = (y2-y1) / (x2-x1) = -2

1- Slope of AC:
Assume point A is (x1, y1) and point C is (x2, y2). To get the slope of AC, we will substitute with the given points in the following formula:
slope of AC = (y2-y1) / (x2-x1) = -2

3- Therefore, the easiest way to get the slope of any line is by using the slope formula.

4- Note that since the two slopes are equal, this means that the two lines are parallel.

Hope this helps :)

Kisachek [45]

Answer:

x^-5 = x to the power of negative 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Which of these is equivalent to 1 over x to the power of 5 ?

Mathematically this is expressed as

(1/x)⁵

We have a rule when it comes to expressing power

(1/a)^b = a^-b

Hence, applying this rule to our question

(1/x)⁵ = (1/x)^5

= x^-5

This is written in words as:

x to the power of negative 5
