Answer:

The slope is 0.036 (to the nearest thousandth)

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to determine by how much both x and y change as we go from (-44.85,5.3) to (4.85,3.5). It might help to write out what we have here:

4.85

- ( -44.85)

-----------------

49.7 This is the increase in x. Note that adding 49.7 to the original -44.85 results in 4.85, as we expect. Meanwhile, y decreases from 5.3 to 3.5, a decrease of 1.8. Thus, the slope of the line passing thru (-44.85,5.3) and (4.85,3.5) is:

m = rise / run = -1.8 / 49.7 = 0.0362 (to the nearest 10 thousandth), or 0.036 (to the nearest thousandth), or 0.04 (to the nearest hundredth).

The minimum number of rigid transformations required to show that polygon ABCDE is congruent to polygon FGHIJ is 1 2 3 4 . A rot

I found the corresponding image. Pls. see attachment.

The minimum number of rigid transformations required to show that polygon ABCDE is congruent to polygon FGHIJ is 2 (translation and rotation).

A rotation translation must be used to make the two polygons coincide.

A sequence of transformations of polygon ABCDE such that ABCDE does not coincide with polygon FGHIJ is a translation 2 units down and a 90° counterclockwise rotation about point D
