Answer:
-77
Step-by-step explanation:
Simply plug in: 
Because the "-" sign is outside the parentheses, you would distribute.
It would then be: -3-4. *positive and negative=negative, negative and negative=positive. -3-4=-7. It would then be: (-7) · ((3-(-4)(2))
(-4)(2)=-8. →(3-(-8))=(3+8)=11. The equation would then be: (-7) · (11)= -77
Answer:
m = -1/2 and b = 6.5
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the slope of the original line segment, we have to do the change in y/the change in x:
(4-8)/(-5--3) = -4/-2 = 2
2 is the slope of the original line segment, but since this is the perpendicular bisector, we have to take the negative reciprocal of 2 so m = -1/2
To find b we substitute the values of x, y, and m into the equation. Let's use the x value of -3 and the y value of 8:
y = mx + b
8 = -1/2(-3) + b
8 = 3/2 + b
6.5 = b
Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
The pentagon has 5 interior angles that add up to 360. To find the angle of rotational symmetry, divide 360 by 5 (you get 72). So if you rotated the shape 72 degrees, it will map onto itself. 72 times 2 is 144, and that's rotating the shape 72 degrees twice, so it will stay the same.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
If it is a parallelogram the opposite sides will a have the same slope.
Using the diagram we see from the coordinates of A and B:
Slope of AB = (5 - -1)/(-1 - -5)
= 6/4
= 3/2.
In the same way
slope of CD = (2 - -4) / (1 - -3)
= 3/2.
So AB and CD can be shown to be parallel.
Similarly the lines BC and AD are parallel.
So the figure is a parallelogram
Finding the perimeter (counting the units between the points):
Perimeter = 2AB + 2BC
By Pythagoras:
AB = sqrt (6^2 + 4^2) = sqrt 52
BC = sqrt (3^2 + 2^2) = sqrt 13
So Perimeter = 2sqrt52 + 2sqrt13
= 4sqrt13 + 2 sqrt13
= 6sqrt13
or 21.63 unit^2 to 2 decimal places.
Area = sqrt52 * perpendicular distance between the lines AB and CD.
