y = 4x - 2
The equation of a line in ' slope- intercept form ' is
y = mx + c → (m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
To calculate m use the ' gradient formula '
m = (y₂ - y₁ )/(x₂ - x₁ )
let ( x₁, y₁ ) = (5, 18) and (x₂, y₂ ) = ( - 3, - 14 )
m =
=
= 4
the partial equation is y = 4x + c
to find c substitute either of the 2 given points into the partial equation
using (5 , 18) then 18 = 20 + c ⇒ c = 18 - 20 = - 2
y = 4x - 2 is the equation in slope- intercept form

Hello!</h2>
The answer is:
The area of the rhombus is equal to 64 squared inches.

<h2>
Why?</h2>
Since we already know half of the length of the diagonals of the rhombus, we can calculate the area of the rhombus using the following formula:

From the image we can see that:


So, substituting, we have:

Hence, we have that the area of the rhombus is equal to 64 square inches.
Have a nice day!
3 3/8 + 6 2/5 + 3 7/8 + 4 5/8 = 731/40 and simplify that and u get 18 11/40.
I have found the options elsewhere and they are as follows:
the slopes must be positive
the slopes must be negative
their slopes are equal
the slopes are opposite reciprocals.
From the choices, I think the correct answer would that their slopes are equal since they are parallel lines and never intersect.
