\bf \begin{array}{ccccccccc}
&&x_1&&y_1&&x_2&&y_2\\
%  (a,b)
&&(~{{ 4}} &,&{{ -2}}~) 
%  (c,d)
&&(~{{ 5}} &,&{{ 0}}~)
\end{array}
\\\\\\
% slope  = m
slope = {{ m}}\implies 
\cfrac{\stackrel{rise}{{{ y_2}}-{{ y_1}}}}{\stackrel{run}{{{ x_2}}-{{ x_1}}}}\implies \cfrac{5-(-2)}{0-4}\implies \cfrac{5+2}{0-4}\implies -\cfrac{7}{4}

\bf \stackrel{\textit{point-slope form}}{y-{{ y_1}}={{ m}}(x-{{ x_1}})}\implies y-(-2)=-\cfrac{7}{4}(x-4)
\\\\\\
y+2=-\cfrac{7}{4}(x-4)\implies y+2=-\cfrac{7}{4}x+7\implies y=-\cfrac{7}{4}x+9

Using the segment addition postulate, which is true? A number line going from negative 9 to positive 9. A closed circle appears
MArishka [77]

Answer:

  BC + CD = BD

Step-by-step explanation:

The segment addition postulate tells you that when a segment is divided into two parts, the sum of the lengths of the first part of the divided segment and the second part of the divided segment will be equal to the length of the whole segment.

If point C divides segment BD into BC and CD, then the sum of those two segments will match the whole.

How Do I do proofs for proving triangles?
MA_775_DIABLO [31]
You must have been taught postulates and theorems that allow you to prove triangles congruent, such as SSS, SAS, ASA, etc. Look at the given information of a proof, and see how from the given information, using definitions, postulates, and theorems you have already learned, you can show pairs of corresponding sides and angles to be congruent that will fit into the above methods. Then use one of the methods to prove the triangles congruent.

GEOMETRY HELP!!
Vlada [557]

Answer:

0

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the coordinate of the midpoint of segment QB, first, find the distance from Q to B.

QB = |4 - 8| = |-4| = 4

The coordinate of the midpoint of QB would be at ½ the distance of QB (½*4 = 2).

Therefore, coordinate of the midpoint of QB = the coordinate of Q + 2 = 4 + 2 = 6

OR

Coordinate of B - 2 = 8 - 2 = 6

Coordinate of the midpoint of QB = 6

Coordinate of W = -8

Coordinate of A = 0

distance from W to A (WA) = |-8 - 0| = |-8| = 8

The coordinate of the midpoint of WA would be at ½ the distance of WA = ½*8 = 4.

Therefore, coordinate of the midpoint of WA = the coordinate of W + 4 = -8 + 4 = -4

Or

Coordinate of A - 4 = 0 - 4 = -4

Coordinate of the midpoint of WA = -4

Now, let's find the midpoint between the two new coordinates we have found, which are -4 and 4

Distance of the segment formed by coordinate -4 and 4 = |-4 - 4| = |-8| = 8

Midpoint = ½*8 = 4

Coordinate of the midpoint = -4 + 4 = 0

Or

4 - 4 = 0
