Answer:
The answer is zero
Step-by-step explanation:
We will use the formula for the slope:
m = ( y2- y1 ) / ( x2 - x1 )
For PQ : m = ( 0 - 0 ) / ( a + c - 0 ) = 0
For RS : m = ( b - b ) / ( a - ( 2a + c )) = 0
Both slopes are m = 0, so PQ and RS are parallel to x - axis and at the same time parallel to each other ( PQ | | RS ). One pair of opposite sides is parallel.
1): Answer =====> Letter Choice, (B), The rate in which you walked home, The slope is the same, as the Rate of Change, In Distance Divided by the Change in Time =====> d = 4 -1/15t(4) / 1/15t
2): The Equation: d = -1/15t + 4
The more the Number of Minutes: Larger the Negative Quantity; ====> -1/15t
The Larger the Negative Quantity in Equation: D value is Smaller:
Therefore your Answer ===> The Distance from home (d), Decreased with Minute Walked (t) ====> So, Letter Choice, (C)
2): Towards your home, The slope is Negative, and the Distance (y - value), Decreases, as the Time (x- Values), Increases. Notice the Slope is Negative, Because, you are getting closer to home.
Hope that helps!!!! : )
