Answer:
28 in²
Step-by-step explanation:
Area Parallelogram = b x h
Area Parallelogram = 4in x 7in
Area Parallelogram = 28 in²
-Chetan K
The slope of the line = (2- -8) / (3 - - 5) = 10 / 8
= 5/4
y - y1 = m(x - x1) where m = slope and (x1, y1) is a point on the line so here we have:-
y - 2 = 5/4(x - 3)
y = 5/4x - 15/4 + 2
y = 5/4 x - 7/4 is the answer
