Quadrilateral FLAG has coordinates F(1,5), L(6,3), A(3,-1), and G(-2,1). Which
2 answers:
Answer:
- B. Quadrilateral FLAG is a parallelogram because opposite sides are parallel.
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>Refer to attached.</em>
Plot the point and connect in order FLAG.
<u>We see </u>
- FL ║ GA
- GF ║ AL
- FA and GL are not perpendicular
<u>All the above can be confirmed by calculating the slopes:</u>
- m(FL) = (3 - 5)/(6 - 1) = -2/5
- m(GA) = (1 + 1)/(-2-3) = -2/5
- These are same.
- m(GF) = (5 - 1)/(1 + 2) = 4/3
- m(AL) = (3 + 1)/(6 - 3) = 4/3
- These are same
- m(FA) = (-1 - 5)/(3 - 1) = -3
- m(GL) = (3 - 1)/(6 +2) = -1/4
- These are negative but not reciprocal
The quadrilateral is a parallelogram.

<u>ANSWER:</u>
The price of senior citizen ticket is $4 and price of child ticket is $7.
<u>SOLUTION: </u>
Given, first day of sales the school sold 3 senior citizen tickets and 9 child tickets for a total of $75.
The school took in $67 on the second day by selling 8 senior citizen tickets and 5 child tickets.
We need to find what is the price each of one senior citizen tickets and one child tickets.
Let, the price of senior citizen ticket be "x" and price of child ticket be "y"
Then according to the given information,
3x + 9y = 75
x + 3y = 25 [by cancelling the common term 3.
x = 25 – 3y ---- (1)
And, 8x + 5y = 67 ---- (2)
Substitute (1) in (2)
8(25 – 3y) + 5y = 67
200 – 24y + 5y = 67
5y – 24y = 67 – 200
-19y = -133
y =
y = 7
Now substitute y value in (1)
x = 25 – 3(7)
x = 25 – 21 = 4
Hence, the price of senior citizen ticket is $4 and price of child ticket is $7.
