Answer:

Part 1) m_A_B=1

Part 2) m_B_C=-\frac{1}{6}

Part 3) m_C_D=1

Part 4) m_A_D=-\frac{2}{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

In a parallelogram opposite sides are parallel and congruent

The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to

m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}

we have

A(−4, −1) , B(−1, 2) , C(5, 1) , and D(1, −3)

step 1

Find the slope AB

substitute in the formula

m=\frac{2+1}{-1+4}

m=\frac{3}{3}

m_A_B=1

step 2

Find the slope BC

substitute in the formula

m=\frac{1-2}{5+1}

m=\frac{-1}{6}

m_B_C=-\frac{1}{6}

step 3

Find the slope CD

substitute in the formula

m=\frac{-3-1}{1-5}

m=\frac{-4}{-4}

m_C_D=1

step 4

Find the slope AD

substitute in the formula

m=\frac{-3+1}{1+4}

m=\frac{-2}{5}

m_A_D=-\frac{2}{5}

step 5

Compare the slopes

Remember that

If two lines are parallel, then their slopes are the same

so

AB is parallel to CD

BC is not parallel to AD

therefore

Quadrilateral ABCD is not a parallelogram because the opposite sides are not parallel

What is the approximate volume of the cone? use 3.14 for
Natali5045456 [20]

Answer:

157 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

volume = (1/3) * π * r² * h

volume = (1/3) * π * 5² * 6

volume = (1/3) * π * 25 * 6

volume = (1/3) * π * 150

volume = (1/3) * 471

volume = 157 cm²

BaLLatris [955]
12)
(intro) Slope is change in y divided by change in x (axes). Here, the y axis is depth and the x axis is hours. So, the slope is change in depth between any two points, divided by the change in hours between the same points. The slope of this line is half a foot depth divided by 2 hours.
a) So, the slope is 0.5 / 2 = 0.25, or 1/4.
b) The graph shows a constant rate of change because the line is straight (it increases at the same speed. If the line was curving, it would not be a constant rate of change).
c) Yes, because the line has a constant rate of change now.
