Which conjunction or disjunction is equivalent to the open sentence |a – 9| ≤ 4.
1 answer:
The absolute value inequality is equivalent to
±(a - 9) ≤ 4
When the minus sign is chosen and the expression is multiplied by -1, the comparison operator is reversed and the expression becomes
a - 9 ≥ -4
The solution spaces of
a - 9 ≤ 4
a - 9 ≥ -4
overlap, so the solution is the conjunction of the two inequalities. This matches selection ...
D. a - 9 ≤ 4 and a - 9 ≥ -4

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:
So, we have:
The above computations show that opposite sides are equal.
Next, we determine the slope of each side using:
So, we have:
The above computations show that opposite sides are parallel, because they have equal slope
Hence, the quadrilateral QRST is a parallelogram
