The slope for is JK 1/3 , the slope of LK is -2 , the slope of ML is 2/5 , and the slope of MJ is 3/2 . Quadrilateral JKLM is not a parallelogram because neither pair of opposite sides is parallel
Further explanation:
Given vertices are:
J(−4, 1) , K(2, 3) , L(5, -3) , and M(0, −5) .
We have to find the slopes before concluding any result
The formula for slope is:

So:
<u>Slope of JK:</u>

<u>Slope of LK:</u>

<u>Slope of ML:</u>

<u>Slope of MJ:</u>

As the slopes of all sides are different, the given quadrilateral is not a parallelogram because in order for the quadrilateral to be a parallelogram the opposite sides have to be parallel i.e. have equal slopes and there are no sides with equal slopes.

I did the math and if I’m not mistaken he gets 9.26666666667
Aka 9
If I’m wrong I’m sorry but that’s what I got
I believe the answer would be a!
Hello,
-(-5) is also known as just a plain positive 5. When two negatives are multiplied together, they make the number positive. So, the location of -(-5) on a number line would be on the number 5. I hope this helps!

Answer:
x=7
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>If P is the midpoint of XY, then XP = PY:</u>
- 8x - 2 = 12x - 30
- 12x -8x = 30 -2
- 4x = 28
- x= 28/4
- x= 7
