Answer:

<h2>A (-1;10)</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

From the problem, we deduct that point (2,7) is a middle point for diagonals AC and BD, because the intersection of diagonals in a parallelogram intercept in the middle point of each one.

So, the coordinates of A are (x,y) unknown, and coordinates of C are (5,4), applying the definition of middle point:

m_{AC}=(\frac{x+5}{2};\frac{y+4}{2} )

However we know the exact coordinates of the middle point, which are (2,7), that means:

\frac{x+5}{2}=2\\ x=4-5=-1

\frac{y+4}{2}=7\\ y=14-4=10

Therefore, the coordinates of A are (-1;10)

Someone help, this is kinda boring...

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a+b =1\dfrac{3}{5} + (-2)\\\\=\dfrac{8}{5}-\dfrac{2*5}{1*5}\\\\=\dfrac{8-10}{5}\\\\\\=\dfrac{-2}{5}\\\\\\2-c = 2-[-7] = 2+7 = 9\\\\\\dfrac{- I a + b I}{2-c}=\dfrac{\dfrac{-2}{5}}{9}\\\\=\dfrac{-2}{5}*\dfrac{1}{9}\\\\=\dfrac{-2}{45}\\\\

Which equation represents a line which is perpendicular to the line y = 4/3x-6
SCORPION-xisa [38]
In order to be perpendicular, you must have a slope that is the opposite reciprocal, so the slope should by -3/4. So the equation could be y = -3/4x with any other number at the end.
