Answer:

<h2>The slope of BC is -7/2.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>Givens</h3>

ABCD is a rectangle.

AB \parallel CD

BC \parallel AD.

m_{AB} =\frac{2}{7}

We know that AB \perp BC and CD \perp AD, by definition of rectangle.

Additionally, m_{AB} \times m_{BC}=-1, by condition of perpendicularity.

Replacing, we have

\frac{2}{7}  \times m_{BC}=-1\\ m_{BC}=-\frac{7}{2}

Therefore, the slope of BC is -7/2.

Dan buys a car for £2200.
pashok25 [27]

Answer:

£1134

Step-by-step explanation:

0.5%×6 = 3.0% ≈ 3%

\frac{3}{100} × 2200 = 3 × 22 = 66 (we shorten the zeros ⇒ ∅∅)

2200 - 66 = £1134

What is the discontinuity of the function f(x) = the quantity of x squared minus 3 x minus 28, all over x plus 4?
asambeis [7]
You get discontinuity when in this function you divide by 0. You will divide by 0 if x+4 = 0. That means that x = -4

y value for this example doesn't matter because for x = -4 you will have discontinuity. Since the only answer that has -4 as x value is D, that has to be solution.

Answer is D
