Answers:
- Part A) There is one pair of parallel sides
- Part B) (-3, -5/2) and (-1/2, 5/2)
====================================================
Explanation:
Part A
By definition, a trapezoid has exactly one pair of parallel sides. The other opposite sides aren't parallel. In this case, we'd need to prove that PQ is parallel to RS by seeing if the slopes are the same or not. Parallel lines have equal slopes.
------------------------
Part B
The midsegment has both endpoints as the midpoints of the non-parallel sides.
The midpoint of segment PS is found by adding the corresponding coordinates and dividing by 2.
x coord = (x1+x2)/2 = (-4+(-2))/2 = -6/2 = -3
y coord = (y1+y2)/2 = (-1+(-4))/2 = -5/2
The midpoint of segment PS is (-3, -5/2)
Repeat those steps to find the midpoint of QR
x coord = (x1+x2)/2 = (-2+1)/2 = -1/2
y coord = (x1+x2)/2 = (3+2)/2 = 5/2
The midpoint of QR is (-1/2, 5/2)
Join these midpoints up to form the midsegment. The midsegment is parallel to PQ and RS.
Answer:

5 1.2
Step-by-step explanation:
(3x+4)(2x+1)
If the question asks you to find roots/solutions:
3x + 4 = 0
3x = -4
x = -1.33333333
2x + 1 = 0
2x = -1
x = -0.5

4x4x4x4x4x4=4^6
Group them to multiply to make it easier:
4x4=16
4x4=16
4x4=16
16x16x16=4096
honestly just plug it into a calculator
Answer:
(- 3, 37) and (- 
, 
)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the 2 equations
2x² - y + 19 = 0 → (1)
y + 11x = 4 → (2) ← subtract 11x from both sides
y = 4 - 11x → (3)
Substitute y = 4 - 11x into (1)
2x² - (4 - 11x) + 19 = 0
2x² - 4 + 11x + 19 = 0
2x² + 11x + 15 = 0 ← in standard form
(2x + 5)(x + 3) = 0 ← in factored form
Equate each factor to zero and solve for x
2x + 5 = 0 ⇒ 2x = - 5 ⇒ x = -
x + 3 = 0 ⇒ x = - 3
Substitute these values into (3) for corresponding values of y
x = - : y = 4 + 
= ⇒ (- , )
x = - 3 : y = 4 + 33 = 37 ⇒ (- 3, 37 )
