the explanation and the answer in the photo
D: (-infinity, 0) U (0, infinity) because you cant have a zero in the bottom of the fraction
Find sketch of parallelogram attached
Answer and explanation:
A parallelogram is a quadrilateral which is wider than it is long. A parallelogram has two sides parallel to the other. From the above, we are told the parallelogram PQRS has an angle QPS 120, with sides 10cm and 8cm, we use this to sketch the parallelogram
We find that angle QPS is 120 degrees hence angle RSP is 60 degrees since angle on straight line is 60 degrees from 180-120 in angle QPS and alternate angles are equal. Also opposite angles of a parallelogram are equal
Answer: Choice A
y = (-3/4)(x + 4) + 6
=====================================================
Let's go through the answer choices
- Choice A is something we'll come back to
- Choice B is false because the line does not go uphill as we move from left to right. The graphed line has a negative slope, which contradicts what choice B is saying.
- Choice C is false for similar reasons as choice B. The slope should be negative.
- Choice D has a negative slope, but the y intercept is wrong. The y intercept should be 3. So choice D is false as well.
We've eliminated choices B through D.
Choice A must be the answer through process of elimination.

Here's an alternative method:
If we started at a point like (0,3) and move to (4,0), note how the slope is -3/4
This is because we've moved down 3 units and to the right 4 units.
m = slope = rise/run = -3/4
We can also use the slope formula m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1) to see this.
Then we pick on a point that is on the diagonal line. It could be any point really, but the point your teacher used for choice A is (x1,y1) = (-4,6)
So,
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
y - 6 = (-3/4)(x - (-4))
y - 6 = (-3/4)(x + 4)
y = (-3/4)(x + 4) + 6
