 A line with a negative slope is a line that is trending downward from left to right. In other words, the line's rise to run ratio is a negative value. Negative slope line. In this image, the car is driving down a hill that has a negative slope.

enot [183]

2x - 3y = - 13

the equation of a line in standard form is

Ax + By = C ( A is a positive integer and B, C are integers )

First obtain the equation in slope-intercept form

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y-intercept )

calculate m using the gradient formula

m = ( y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (1, 5 ) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (- 2, 3 )

m = \frac{3-5}{-2-1} = \frac{-2}{-3}= \frac{2}{3}

y = \frac{2}{3} x + c ← partial equation

to find c substitute either of the 2 points into the partial equation

using (1, 5 ), then

5 = \frac{2}{3} + c ⇒ c = \frac{13}{3}

rearrange the equation into standard form

multiply through by 3

3y = 2x + 13 ( subtract 3y and 13 from both sides )

2x - 3y = - 13 ← in standard form

The coordinates of polygon ABCD are A(-4,-1), B(-2,3), C(2,2), and D(4,-3). Use these coordinates to complete the sentences belo
oee [108]

Answer:

The perimeter of polygon ABCD, to the nearest thousandth units is

22.227 units

The perimeter of polygon ABCD', to the nearest thousandth, would be 20.980 units

The area of polygon ABCD' is 19.5 units²

Step-by-step explanation:

The coordinates forming the polygon are

A (-4,-1), B(-2,3), C(2,2), and D(4,-3)

The perimeter then is given by the sum of the length of the sides as follows;

Length of line between two X and Y points distance, xi and yj apart is

length XY =  \sqrt{x^2+y^2}

Therefore, the length between points AB is

length AB = \sqrt{(-4 - (-2))^2+(-1-3)^2}

= \sqrt{(-4 +2)^2+(-4)^2} = \sqrt{-2^2+-4^2}  = \sqrt{20}  = 4.472 units

Similarly, length BC is given by

Length BC =  \sqrt{(-4)^2+1^2} =  \sqrt{17} = 4.123 units

Length CD = \sqrt{(-2)^2+5^2} =  \sqrt{29} = 5.385 units

Length DA = \sqrt{(8)^2+(-2)^2} =  \sqrt{68} = 8.246 units

The perimeter is equal to;

length AB + Length BC + Length CD + Length DA

= 4.472 + 4.123 + 5.385 + 8.246 = 22.227 units

If the point D is moved up 2 units and left 1 unit we have

D' = x-1, y+2 where x and y are the coordinates of point D

D(4, -3) → D'((4-1), (-3+2)) = D'(3, -1)

The length D'A =  \sqrt{(7)^2+(0)^2} =  \sqrt{49} =7 units

The perimeter of polygon ABCD'

length AB + Length BC + Length CD + Length D'A

= 4.472 + 4.123 + 5.385 + 7 = 20.980 units.

The area is given by the determinant of the 3 by 3 matrix using Cramer's Rule as follows

 S_{\bigtriangleup} = (\frac{1}{2})|x_1y_2+x_2y_3+x_3y_1-x_1y_3-x_2y_1-x_3y_2|

= (\frac{1}{2})|x_1(y_2-y_3)+x_2(y_3-y_1) +x_3(y_1-y_2)|

Triangle ABC we have

A(-4,-1)

B(-2,3)

C(2,2)

S_{{\bigtriangleup}ABC} = (\frac{1}{2})|x_1(y_2-y_3)+x_2(y_3-y_1) +x_3(y_1-y_2)|

=(\frac{1}{2})|(-4)(3-2)+(-2)(2-(-1)) +2((-1)-3)|

= =(\frac{1}{2})|-4-6 -8|= 9 units^2

Triangle ACD'

A(-4,-1)

C(2,2)

D'(3, -1)

S_{{\bigtriangleup}ACD'} = (\frac{1}{2})|x_1(y_2-y_3)+x_2(y_3-y_1) +x_3(y_1-y_2)|

=(\frac{1}{2})|(-4)(2+1)+(2)(-1+1) +3((-1)-2)| = \frac{21}{2} = 10.5 units²

Area of polygon =   S_{{\bigtriangleup}ABCD'} = S_{{\bigtriangleup}ABC} + S_{{\bigtriangleup}ACD'} = (9 + 10.5) units²

Area of polygon ABCD' = 19.5 units².
