Answer:

you add up all of the items and then divide by the total number of items.

Step-by-step explanation:

For example,

Total/Number of Items = Average

Set: 1,6,4,5

(1+6+4+5)/4

16/4 = 4

4 is the average of the items above.

Good luck!!

Item 15 Question 1 Show that quadrilateral WXYZ with vertices W(−1,6), X(2, 8), Y(1, 0), and Z(−2,−2) is a parallelogram by find

Step-by-step explanation:

A parallelogram is a flat shape that has four sides. The two sets of opposite sides are parallel and of equal length to each other.

To prove that our figure is a parallelogram we first get the slope of our sides.

The formule we use to get the slope is:

m = $\frac{y-y1}{x-x1}$

first we have the W-Z side that it's supossed to be parallel to X-Y side

if we use our formule to calculate the slope of W-Z:

$\frac{6-(-2)}{-1-(-2)}$ = $\frac{8}{1}$ = 8

if we use our formule to calculate the slope of X-Y:

$\frac{8-0}{2-1}$ = $\frac{8}{1}$ = 8

We know that parallel lines will never intersect because they have the same slope, therefore W-Z side is parallel to X-Y side

2. Then we have the W-X side that it's supossed to be parallel to Z-Y side

if we use our formule to calculate the slope of W-X:

$\frac{6-8}{-1-2}$ = $\frac{-2}{-3}$

if we use our formule to calculate the slope of Z-Y:

$\frac{-2-0}{-2-1}$ = $\frac{-2}{-3}$

We know that parallel lines will never intersect because they have the same slope, therefore W-X side is parallel to Z-Y side

Then we have to prove that the parallalel sides are equal length to each other.

The formule we use to get the distance between two points is:

$\sqrt{(x2-x1)^{2}+(y2-y1)^{2} }$

We calculate the lenght of the W-Z side that it's supossed to be equal to X-Y side:

W-Z = $\sqrt{(-1-(-2))^{2}+(6-(-2))^{2} }$ = $\sqrt{65}$

X-Y = $\sqrt{(2-1)^{2}+(8-0)^{2} }$ = $\sqrt{65}$

So the W-Z side have the same lenght to X-Y side.

We calculate the lenght of the W-X side that it's supossed to be equal to Z-Y side:

W-X = $\sqrt{(-1-2)^{2}+(6-8)^{2} }$ = $\sqrt{13}$

Z-Y = $\sqrt{(-2-1)^{2}+(-2-0)^{2} }$ = $\sqrt{13}$

So the W-X side have the same lenght to Z-Y side.

a company uses two vans to transport workers from a free parking lot to the workplace between 7 and 9 a.m. One can has 14 more s

Fiesta28 [93]

Y = x + 14 (the larger bus has 14 more seats)
2x + y = 65 ( 2 x two times the seats , as it makes 2 trips the smaller van so the seats will be full twice maximum)

2x + x + 14 = 65 (sub the value of y = x+14 in the second equation)

3x = 51
x = 17 seat (smaller)
y = 31 seat (larger)
