Answer: -3 = 11(4) + b

Step-by-step explanation: y = mx + b, -3 is the y, 11 is the slope (m), 4 is the x, b is the y-intercept which is unknown unless you solve for it.

william will be attending college next year. he thinks that even though the tuition is higher at college A it will cost less ove

I agree with William because going to an in-state college you could live off campus which can save you tons of money

2. Given a quadrilateral with vertices (−1, 3), (1, 5), (5, 1), and (3,−1):

zlopas [31]

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

In every rectangle, the two diagonals have the same length. If a quadrilateral's diagonals have the same length, that doesn't mean it has to be a rectangle, but if a parallelogram's diagonals have the same length, then it's definitely a rectangle.

So first of all, let's prove this is a parallelogram. The basic definition of a parallelogram is that it is a quadrilateral where both pairs of opposite sides are parallel.

So let's name the vertices as:

$A(-1,3) \\ \\ B(1,5) \\ \\ C(5,1) \\ \\ D(3,-1)$

First pair of opposite sides:

<u>Slope:</u>

$\text{For AB}: \\ \\ m=\frac{5-3}{1-(-1)}=1 \\ \\ \\ \text{For CD}: \\ \\ m=\frac{1-(-1)}{5-3}=1 \\ \\ \\ \text{So AB and CD are parallel}$

Second pair of opposite sides:

<u>Slope:</u>

$\text{For BC}: \\ \\ m=\frac{1-5}{5-1}=-1 \\ \\ \\ \text{For AD}: \\ \\ m=\frac{-1-3}{3-(-1)}=-1 \\ \\ \\ \text{So BC and AD are parallel}$

So in fact this is a parallelogram. The other thing we need to prove is that the diagonals measure the same. Using distance formula:

$d=\sqrt{(y_{2}-y_{1})^2+(x_{2}-x_{1})^2} \\ \\ \\ Diagonal \ BD: \\ \\ d=\sqrt{(5-(-1))^2+(1-3)^2}=2\sqrt{10} \\ \\ \\ Diagonal \ AC: \\ \\ d=\sqrt{(3-1)^2+(-5-1)^2}=2\sqrt{10} \\ \\ \\$

So the diagonals measure the same, therefore this is a rectangle.

Is 1/5 bigger or smaller than 1/6

MAXImum [283]

You can tell if you make the denominators the same easiest one is 30 for 6 and 5
1/5=6/30
1/6=5/30

now you can see which is bigger
