*see attachment showing the two polygons in a grid.

Answer:

No, PQRST is not a scale copy of ABCDE because we the sides are not increased proportionally.

Step-by-step explanation:

A polygon can be said to be a scaled copy of another polygon, if the the same scale factor is used in scaling every segment of the preimage or original image to get the length of the corresponding segments of the scale copy or image. In order words, all segments must be scaled proportionally.

Polygon PQRST, which is the new image, has different scale factors used in scaling the various segments of the preimage. In simple terms, the sides of PQRST were not increased proportionally. Therefore, PQRST is not a scaled copy of ABCDE.

Please help asap calculate the slope of the line through the points (6,-8) and (3,-4).
Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Mathematically, we can calculate the slope

using the formula below;

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

Where (x1.y1) = (6,-8)

(x2, y2) = (3,-4)

So inputing these values into the formula, we have

m = (-4-(-8))/(3-6)

m = (-4+8)/-3 = 4/-3 = -4/3

Now, we want to write the equation of the line;

y= -4/3x + c

to get the value of c, we simply need to use any of the points. We use any of the two points by substituting the values of x and y at that point.

Let’s use (3,-4)

That would give ;

-4 = -4/3(3) + c

-4 = -4 + c

This means c = 0

Thus the equation of the line is y = -4/3x

Now to find out if the point (-3,4) is on the line

We only need to substitute the values of x and y here and see ;

Thus;

4 = -4/3(-3)

Sine 4 = 4

We can conclude that the point is on the line in question
