Answer:

Suppose: M, N, P, Q are the midpoints of AB, BC, CD, AD respectively

=> MNPQ is the quadrilateral inside ABCD

connect B to D, ΔABD has : M is the midpoint of AB

                                              Q is the midpoint of AD

=> MQ is the midpoint polygon of ΔABD

=> MQ // BD and MQ = 1/2.BD (1)

ΔBCD has: N is the midpoint of BC

                  P is the midpoint of DC

=> NP is the midpoint polygon of ΔBCD

=> NP // BD and NP = 1/2.BD    (2)

from (1) and (2) => MQ // NP ( //BD)

                            MQ = NP  (=1/2.BD)

=> MNPQ is a parallelogram.​

=>  the quadrilateral inside ABCD is a parallelogram.​

What is the slope for (2, -1) and (3,1)
ale4655 [162]

Answer: 2

Step-by-step explanation:

m = y2 - y1 /   x2- x1

where slope is m,

so in this case it would be

m= 1-(-1) / 3-2

m=2/1

m=2

Note that you can do it either way

Solve the system of equations by using substitution.<br> x+8y=-2<br> x-3y=20
zysi [14]

Answer:

(14, -2)

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve by using substitution, begin by solving for a variable in the first equation. Let's solve for x:

x+8y=-2\\x=-2-8y

Now we know what <em>x</em> equals. Let's substitute this into the second equation:

x-3y=20\\(-2-8y)-3y=20

We can then simplify:

-2-8y-3y=20 Given equation

-2-11y=20 Combine y terms

-11y=22 Add 2

y=-2 Divide by -11

So, we now know the value of y = -2.

To find the value of X, we can substitute the value of Y into one of the equations. Let's use the first one:

x+8y=-2

x+8(-2)=-2 Substitute for y

x-16=-2 Distribute 8

x=14 Add 16

So, we now know the value of x = 14.

Therefore, we know a solution to the system of equations is (14, -2).

3a+2= -2n+3p solve for a
nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

3a + 2 = -2n + 3p

3a = -2n + 3p - 2

a = (-2n+3p-2)/3

a = -2/3(n) + p - 2/3
