Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To prove this we should first make a little representation to get an idea of how will proceed to work .

To solve it we should use vectors so the first step is to identify this vectors :

  • we have four points : A/B/C/D
  1. A(-2,-4)
  2. B(1,2)
  3. C(2,10)
  4. D(-1,4)
  • VECTOR AB WITH VECTOR DC
  • VECTOR AD WITH VECTOR BC

NOW LET'S IDENTIFY THEIR COORDINATES :

  • VECTOR AB (1-(-2),2-(-4)) VECTOR DC (2-(-1),10-4)
  • VECTOR AD (-1-(-2),4-(-4)) VECTOR BC (2-1,10-2)

We get :

  • VECTOR AB (3,6) VECTOR DC (3,6)
  • VECTOR AD (1,8) VECTOR BC  (1,8)

We notice that the opposite ones have the same coordinates so the edges are parallel .

If we want to check more we can calculate the lenghts :

  • AB=\sqrt{3^{2}+6^{2}  }     DC=\sqrt{3^{2}+6^{2}  }

So AB=DC

  • AD=\sqrt{1^{2}+8^{2}  }     BC=\sqrt{1^{2}+8^{2}  }

So AD=BC

SO ABCD IS A PARALLELOGRAM

Answer:

3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Δy = y1 - y2 = 1 - (-2) = 3

Δx = x1 - x2 = -3 - (-7) = 4

Slope = Δy/Δx = 3/4

Blizzard [7]
Well, if this is assuming there is no tax on the vehicle and it is fully paid off by the end of the payments, an equation can be set up like the following. 385x+1500=C, x being months and C being total cost. 385(12*4)+1500= C, 385(48)+1500=C, 18480+1500=C, 19980=C.
