Let's start with proving that side AB is parallel to side CD

First off, let's find the slope of line AB. So we'll use the slope formula.

A = (x_1,y_1) = (2,-1)\\\\B = (x_2,y_2) = (1,3)\\\\m = \frac{y_{2} - y_{1}}{x_{2} - x_{1}}\\\\m = \frac{3 - (-1)}{1 - 2}\\\\m = \frac{3 + 1}{1 - 2}\\\\m = \frac{4}{-1}\\\\m = -4\\\\

The slope of AB is -4.

Now let's find the slope of line CD.

C = (x_1,y_1) = (6,5)\\\\D = (x_2,y_2) = (7,1)\\\\m = \frac{y_{2} - y_{1}}{x_{2} - x_{1}}\\\\m = \frac{1 - 5}{7 - 6}\\\\m = \frac{-4}{1}\\\\m = -4\\\\

The slope of CD is also -4.

Recall that parallel lines always have equal slope (but different y intercepts).

This proves that AB is parallel to CD.

--------------------------

We'll follow the same steps to show that AD is parallel to BC.

Find the slope of AD

A = (x_1,y_1) = (2,-1)\\\\D = (x_2,y_2) = (7,1)\\\\m = \frac{y_{2} - y_{1}}{x_{2} - x_{1}}\\\\m = \frac{1 - (-1)}{7 - 2}\\\\m = \frac{1 + 1}{7 - 2}\\\\m = \frac{2}{5}\\\\

Now find the slope of BC

B = (x_1,y_1) = (1,3)\\\\C = (x_2,y_2) = (6,5)\\\\m = \frac{y_{2} - y_{1}}{x_{2} - x_{1}}\\\\m = \frac{5 - 3}{6 - 1}\\\\m = \frac{2}{5}\\\\

We get 2/5 each time, so these lines are parallel as well.

--------------------------

In short, the first section shows that AB is parallel to CD. The second section proved that AD is parallel to BC.

Because we have two pairs of parallel opposite sides, we can say that ABCD is a parallelogram.

Edit: I have attached the diagram below.

Factor the GCF: -6x^4y^5 - 15x^3y^2 + 9x^2y^3
natta225 [31]
<span>-6x^4y^5 - 15x^3y^2 + 9x^2y^3

</span>-6x^4y^5 =  -2, 3, x, x, x, x,  y, y, y, y, y
15x^3y^2 =  -5, 3 x, x, x, y, y
9x^2y^3 =    3, 3 x, x, y, y, y

Each group has a 3 in common and each group has 2 x in common and each group has 2 y in common so the GCF = -3x^2y^2

Divide that out and we get 
\frac{-6x^4y^5 - 15x^3y^2 + 9x^2y^3}{-3x^2y^2} =
2x^2y^3 + 5x - 3y
-3x^2y^2(2x^2y^3 + 5x - 3y)

Which value is a solution to the inequality 13 – x ≤ –29?
VARVARA [1.3K]
First, add 29 on both sides.

42 - x is less than or equal to 0.

Next, add x on both sides.

42 is less than or equal to x.

Hence, the correct answer is (C).

This equation shows a way to find a fraction equivalent to 16\18 enter numbers below to correctly complete the equations
3241004551 [841]

the equation becomes:

\frac{16}{18}=\frac{16}{18}\div 1=\frac{16\div 2}{18\div 2}=\frac{8}{9}

Step-by-step explanation:

This equation shows a way to find a fraction equivalent to 16\18 enter numbers below to correctly complete the equations.

The equation is:

\frac{16}{18}=\frac{16}{18}\div 1=\frac{16\div ?}{18\div ?}=\frac{8}{?}

Both the numerator and denominator should be divided by the same term.

So, 16/2 = 8

and 18/2 = 9

So, the equation becomes:

\frac{16}{18}=\frac{16}{18}\div 1=\frac{16\div 2}{18\div 2}=\frac{8}{9}
