Answer:

y -11 = -2(x+4)

or

y = -2x+3

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the point slope form of a line

y - y1 = m(x-x1)  where m is the slope and (x1 ,y1) is a point on the line

y - 11 = -2(x- -4)

y -11 = -2(x+4)

We can rewrite it in slope intercept form

y-11 = -2x-8

Add 11 to each side

y = -2x+3

Answer:

the equation would be y=-2x+3

Step-by-step explanation:

you are given the slope and a point on this line, and the form for an equation of a line is y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. so since we know the slope already:

y=-2x+b

and we are given a point, (x, y), so plug in those numbers as x and y.

11=-2(-4)+b

now solve for b:

11=8+b

3=b

now plug in the slope, m, and y-intercept, b, back into the original equation:

so, y=-2x+3

Use the distance formula to determine whether ABCD below is a parallelogram. A(-3,2) B(-3,3) C (5,-3) D (-1.-5)
Pani-rosa [81]

Answer:

ABCD is not a parallelogram

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the distance formula to determine whether ABCD below is a parallelogram. A(-3,2) B(-3,3) C (5,-3) D (-1.-5)

We have to find the length of the sides of the parallelogram using the formula below

= √(x2 - x1)² + (y2 - y1)² when given vertices (x1, y1) and (x2, y2)

For side AB

A(-3,2) B(-3,3)

= √(-3 -(-3))² + (3 -2)²

= √0² + 1²

= √1

= 1 unit

For side BC

B(-3,3) C (5,-3)

= √(5 -(-3))² + (-3 -3)²

= √8² + -6²

= √64 + 36

= √100

= 10 units

For side CD

C (5,-3) D (-1.-5)

= √(-1 - 5)² + (-5 - (-3))²

= √-6² + -2²

= √36 + 4

= √40 units

For sides AD

A(-3,2) D (-1.-5)

= √(-1 - (-3))² + (-5 -2)²

= √(2² + -7²)

= √(4 + 49)

= √53 units

A parallelogram is a quadrilateral with it's opposite sides equal

From the above calculation

Side AB ≠ CD

BC ≠ AD

Therefore, ABCD is not a parallelogram
