Parallel lines have the same slope.
To compare the slopes of two different lines, you have to get
both equations into the form of
y = 'm' x + (a number) .
In that form, the 'm' is the slope of the line.
Notice that it's the number next to the 'x' .
The equation given in the question is y = 3 - 2 x .
Right away, they've done something to confuse you.
You always expect the 'x' term to be right after the 'equals' sign,
but here, they put it at the end. The slope of this line is the -2 .
Go through the choices, one at a time.
Look for another one with a slope of -2 .
Remember, rearrange the equation to read ' y = everything else ',
and then the slope is the number next to the 'x'.
Choice #4: y = 4x - 2 . The slope is 4 . That's not it.
Choice #3: y = 3 - 4x . The slope is -4 . That's not it.
Choice #2). 2x + 4y = 1
Subtract 2x from each side: 4y = 1 - 2x
Divide each side by 4 : y = 1/4 - 1/2 x .
The slope is -1/2. That's not it.
Choice #1). 4x + 2y = 5
Subtract 4x from each side: 2y = 5 - 4x
Divide each side by 2 : y = 5/2 - 2 x .
The slope is -2 .
This one is it.
This one is parallel to y = 3 - 2x ,
because they have the same slope.
Answer/Step-by-sep explanation:
1. Given:
∆NMK ≅ ∆TRP
a. To complete the congruent statement, thus: ∆MNK ≅ ∆RTP
b. The side that is congruent to 
is 
. Thus:
≅
c. Since ≅ , therefore:
(substitution)
Add 1 to both sides
Divide both sides by 3
2. a. Slope of LK = 
Slope of LM = 
b. ✍️Length of LK is the distance between L(-7, 4) and (-4, 8):
✍️Length of LM is the distance between L(-7, 4) and (-2, 1):
(nearest tenth)
∆KLM is not an isosceles ∆ because it does not has two equal side lengths. This we can see because LK and LM are not equal.
Therefore, Anthony is incorrect. Am isosceles ∆ has two equal sides.
Answer:
4 and 10/2 so actually 9
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
slope = - 
Step-by-step explanation:
given f(4) = 6 and f(- 2) = 8 , then 2 points on the line are
(4, 6 ) and (- 2, 8 )
calculate slope m using the slope formula
m = 
with (x₁, y₁ ) = (4, 6 ) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (- 2, 8 )
m = 
= 
= -
