D is halfway between A and B

so the coordinates of D are (2,2)

E is halfway between A and C so the coordinates of E are (-1,1)

now you need to find the gradient/slope of DE and BC using the formula:

\frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1}

<h3><u>G</u><u>r</u><u>a</u><u>d</u><u>i</u><u>e</u><u>n</u><u>t</u><u> </u><u>o</u><u>f</u><u> </u><u>D</u><u>E</u><u>:</u><u> </u></h3>

SUB IN COORDINATES OF D AND E

\frac{1 - 2}{ - 1 - 2}

therefore the gradient of DE is 1/3.

<h3><u>G</u><u>r</u><u>a</u><u>d</u><u>i</u><u>e</u><u>n</u><u>t</u><u> </u><u>o</u><u>f</u><u> </u><u>B</u><u>C</u><u>:</u></h3>

<em>S</em><em>U</em><em>B</em><em> </em><em>I</em><em>N</em><em> </em><em>C</em><em>O</em><em>O</em><em>R</em><em>D</em><em>I</em><em>N</em><em>A</em><em>T</em><em>E</em><em>S</em><em> </em><em>O</em><em>F</em><em> </em><em>B</em><em> </em><em>A</em><em>N</em><em>D</em><em> </em><em>C</em>

<em>\frac{ - 2 - 0}{ - 3 - 3}</em>

therefore the gradient of BC is -2/-6 which simplifies to 1/3.

<h3>therefore, BC and DE are parallel as they both have a gradient/slope of 1/3 and parallel lines have the same gradient</h3>

What are the steps for solving this equation, quick please, im in a zoom! -2(-2k+3)+4k=-2(6-3k)+2k
Katyanochek1 [597]

Answer:

0 = -6

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

−2(−2k+3)+4k=−2(6−3k)+2k

(−2)(−2k)+(−2)(3)+4k=(−2)(6)+(−2)(−3k)+2k(Distribute)

4k+−6+4k=−12+6k+2k

(4k+4k)+(−6)=(6k+2k)+(−12)(Combine Like Terms)

8k+−6=8k+−12

8k−6=8k−12

Step 2: Subtract 8k from both sides.

8k−6−8k=8k−12−8k

−6=−12

Step 3: Add 6 to both sides.

−6+6=−12+6

0=−6

What are true bearings and how can they be calculated/read?
lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

Compass bearings use the four directions on a compass in order to find the direction of one object from another. An example is N20°E. True bearings use the number of degrees measured clockwise from north an object is. An Example is 120°T.

(-8) - 3y= 25<br><br>if you have time please help, thank you​
Neko [114]

(-8) - 3y= 25

-8-3y= 25

move -8 to the other side

sign changes from -8 to +8

-8+8-3y=25+8

-3y= 33

divide both sides by -3 to get y by itself

and to get +y

-3y/-3= 33/-3

Answer:

y= -11
