The middle point of BC is (0,2), the midpoint of CD is (1,0)
to prove two lines are parallel, prove their slopes are the same.
slope of BD: m=rise/run=4/-2=-2 (the run is negative because to get to B from D on the grid, you have to move from right to left, then upward. If the horizontal move is from left to right, the run is positive)
slope of EG: m=rise/run=2/-1=-2
EG and BD have the same slope, so they are parallel.
The answer would be (2,3).
Try sketching it out, it helps :)
It is different because you are doing a different method to complete the problem. It is the same because it ends up with the same answer, provided you complete the process correctly.
Answer:
1-c
2-b
3-a
Step-by-step explanation:
1. 7y=14
y=2
-7y=-14
y=2
so the equation has one solution
2. 0=0
so the equation has infinite solution
3. 0=2 false
so the equation has no solution
