Answer:

m= 4/9

Explanation:

find the slope between your two points.

(−6,1);(3,5)

(x1,y1)=(−6,1)

(x2,y2)=(3,5)

Use the slope formula:

m= y2−y1 /x2−x1

= 5−1 /3−6

= 4 /9

Simplify. (-2)^-3 ?????

Licemer1 [7]

Remember
$(ab)^c=(a^c)(b^c)$ and
$x^{-m}= \frac{1}{x^m}$
so
$(-2)^{-3}= \frac{1}{(-2)^3}= \frac{1}{(-1)^3(2)^3}=\frac{1}{(-1)(8)}=\frac{1}{-8}=\frac{-1}{8}$

Use the graph of △ABC with midsegments DE, EF and DF. Show that EF is parallel to AC and that EF=1/2 AC

Vinvika [58]

According to the midsegment theorem, the midsegments are parallel to

and half the length of the opposite side.

The completed statement are as follows;

Because the slopes of $\overline{EF}$ and $\overline{AC}$ are both -4, $\overline{EF}$ ║ $\overline{AC}$

EF = $\underline{\sqrt{17}}$ and AC = $\underline{2 \cdot \sqrt{17} }$

Because $\underline{\sqrt{17} }$ = $\underline{\frac{1}{2} \cdot 2 \cdot \sqrt{17} }$ , $EF = \frac{1}{2} \cdot AC$

Reasons:

From the given graph of ΔABC, we have;

Coordinates of the points A, B, and C are; A(-5, 2), B(1, -2), and C(-3, -6)

The coordinates of the point D and E on $\mathbf{\overline{DE}}$ are; D(-4, -2), and E(-2, 0)

The coordinates of the point F is; F(-1, -4)

$Slope, \, m =\dfrac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}$

$\displaystyle Slope \ of \ line \ \overline{AC} = \mathbf{\frac{(-6) - 2}{-3 - (-5)} = \frac{-8}{2}} = -4$

$\displaystyle Slope \ of \ line \ \overline{EF} = \frac{0 - (-4)}{-2 - (-1)} = \frac{4}{-1} = -4$

$Length \ of \ segment,\ l = \sqrt{\left (x_{2}-x_{1} \right )^{2}+\left (y_{2}-y_{1} \right )^{2}}$

Length of EF = √((-1 - (-2))² + (-4 - 0)²) = √(17)

Length of AC = √((-3 - (-5))² + (-6 - 2)²) = √(4 × 17) = 2·√(17)

Therefore, we have;

Because the slope of $\mathbf{\overline {EF}}$ and $\mathbf{\overline {AC}}$ are both , -4, $\overline {EF}$ ║ $\overline {AC}$ . EF = $\underline{\sqrt{17}}$ , and AC

= $\underline{\frac{1}{2} \cdot 2 \cdot \sqrt{17}}$ ,. Because $\underline{\sqrt{17}}$ = $\underline{\frac{1}{2} \cdot 2 \cdot \sqrt{17}}$ , $EF =\mathbf{ \frac{1}{2} AC}$
