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.

Determine whether the integral is convergent or divergent. ∫[infinity] 2 e^−1/x / x^2 dx : O Convergent O divergent If it is con
monitta

Let f(x)=e^{-1/x}. Then f'(x)=\frac1{x^2}e^{-1/x}>0 for all x\ge2, so f is strictly increasing. As x\to\infty, e^{-1/x}\to e^0=1, so f is bounded above by 1. This is to say,

e^{-1/x}

and the integral of \frac1{x^2} converges over the same domain, so this integral must also converge by comparison.

We have, by setting y=-\frac1x,

\displaystyle\int_2^\infty\frac{e^{-1/x}}{x^2}\,\mathrm dx=\int_{-1/2}^0e^y\,\mathrm dy=e^0-e^{-1/2}=1-\frac1{\sqrt e}

What are the coordinates of its image, J'KL, if this
shtirl [24]

Answer:

J'(-15,10)\\\\K'(15,10)\\\\L'(0,-20)

Step-by-step explanation:

For this exercise you must remember that the original figure (before a transformation) is called "Pre-Image" and the one obtained after the transformation is called "Image".

 Dilation is defined as a transformation in which the Image and the Pre-Image have the same shape, but different sizes.

If a figure is dilated by a scale factor "k" with respect to the origin, the rule is:

(x,y) → (kx,ky)

In this case, the vertices of the triangle JKL (the Pre-Image) are:

J(-3.2)\\\\K(3,2)\\\\L(0,-4)

Knowing that the scale factor is:

k=5

You get that the vertices of the triangle J'K'L' (Image), are:

J'=(5(-3),5(2))=(-15,10)\\\\K'=(5(3),5(2))=(15,10)\\\\L'=(5(0),5(-4))=(0,-20)
