Answer:

B *second one down.

Step-by-step explanation:

EF = 1/2(AB + CD)

x+5 = 1/2 (2x + 2 + 2x+4)   Combine the like terms on the right.

x+5 = 1/2 (4x + 6)                Remove the brackets.

x+5 = 1/2*4x + 1/2*6

x+5 = 2x + 3                       Subtract x from both sides

5 = 2x-x + 3

5 = x + 3                            Subtract 3 from both sides

5-3 = x

x = 2

EF = x + 5

EF = 2 + 5

EF = 7

The answer is B

Find the slope of the line y = –7 2 x − 5 8 . Simplify your answer and write it as a proper fraction, improper fraction, or inte
Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

Slope = -7/2

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard equation of a line is expressed as y = mx+c

m is the slope

c is the y-intercept

Given the equation y = -7/2 x - 5/8

Compare with the general equation

mx = -7/2x

Divide both sides by x

mx/x = -7x/2x

m = -7/2

Hence the slope of the line is -7/2

What is the inequality represented by this graph? (pls help its worth 30 points and ill give brainliest if ur correct :D)
Yakvenalex [24]

Step-by-step explanation:

We find the equation of the solid blue line:

The line decreases by 1 unit for every 3 units across.

=> Slope of line = -1/3.

Also the y-intercept is 1.

=> Line equation: y = -1/3 x + 1.

We see that the graph below this line is shaded.

Therefore all y-values below or on the line are represented by the graph.

=> y <= -1/3 x + 1.

The answer is y <= -1/3 x + 1.

Opposite reciprocal of -2/3? geometry/algebra
Ulleksa [173]
The answer would be -3/2

A reciprocal is the inverse of a number.
When using this in fractions just switch the numerator and denominator. This is done by dividing the fraction by one, but in the case of a negative fraction you would divide by negative 1.
