The slope for is JK 1/3 , the slope of LK is -2 , the slope of ML is 2/5 , and the slope of MJ is 3/2 . Quadrilateral JKLM is not a parallelogram because neither pair of opposite sides is parallel
Further explanation:
Given vertices are:
J(−4, 1) , K(2, 3) , L(5, -3) , and M(0, −5) .
We have to find the slopes before concluding any result
The formula for slope is:

So:
<u>Slope of JK:</u>

<u>Slope of LK:</u>

<u>Slope of ML:</u>

<u>Slope of MJ:</u>

As the slopes of all sides are different, the given quadrilateral is not a parallelogram because in order for the quadrilateral to be a parallelogram the opposite sides have to be parallel i.e. have equal slopes and there are no sides with equal slopes.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:

Hey there!
So, if

, this would mean that we would do

and from this, we would get 8.
We will then need to find what is

.


=

So, the equation would really look like
. . .
![\left[\begin{array}{ccc} 8*(7)-2*4 = 48 \\ \\ x=\boxed{7}\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%20%20%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7D%208%2A%287%29-2%2A4%20%3D%2048%20%5C%5C%20%5C%5C%20x%3D%5Cboxed%7B7%7D%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D%20)
Hope this helps.
