Answer: 2
Step-by-step explanation:
This should be right because 5 * 2 = 10
5x mean that 5 * x = 10
Hope this makes sense
Answer:
Equation of midsegment line: y = (-1/4)x + 2.
Step-by-step explanation:
If the parallel sides of a trapezoid are contained by the lines:-
y = (-1/4)x +5 and y = (-1/4)x - 1
Midsegment of any trapezoid is the line segment
1. that is parallel to pair of parallel side of trapezoid and
2. that passes through the middle of the trapezoid and cuts the other two sides into equal-half.
It means the midsegment would have same slope as the parallel lines and y-intercept would be in the middle of intercepts of parallel lines.
So y = mx + b
where m = -1/4 and b = (5 - 1)/2 = 4/2 = 2.
Hence, the equation of midsegment would be y = (-1/4)x + 2.
Confused on the question could I have a picture?
It equals 3/16 because I first multiplied the first to fractions together and I know that negative times a positive is negative so we would get a negative and I also multiplied the 2 to get -9/40 and then multiplied -5/6 to -9/40 to get the answer of 3/16!
