<span>A parallelogram is a 4-sided shape where opposites sides are parallel. A rectangle is a special case of a parallelogram. All rectangles are parallelograms.

But a rectangle is a shape where opposites sides are parallel *and* all the corners are 90 degree angles. So you can't say that all parallelograms would be rectangles. Some parallelograms would be rectangles, but not all.

Rectangles are a subset of the shapes called parallelograms. But parallelograms are *not* a subset of the shapes called rectangles.

It's similar to saying all cars are vehicles. But you can't say that all vehicles are cars. </span>

What are the coordinates of the image of C if it is reflected across the x-axis?

Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

(-2, 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

~When reflecting a point of the x-axis, the x value (or first number inside the parenthesis) does not change.

The reason the x-value does not change is because you are reflecting over the x-axis, making the point go up or down. That will change the y-value but the x-value only changes if you move to the left or the right. In this case, you can see that the point's x-value is -2, so that will not change. It's current y-value however is -4. When reflecting over an axis, the number that is changing (in this case the y-value) will just be flipped from positive to negative, or vise versa. In this case, -4 will be reflected to be 4, making point C reflected over the x-axis (-2, 4).

A. The population would be 120

You would find 20 percent of 100
To do that, you do 100× 0.2 and add that to 100

B. The population doubles

10×2= 20
20×2= 40, not 30

Two automobiles start together from the same place and travel along the same route. The first averages 40 miles

natita [175]

Answer:

A. (55 x 5) - (40 x 5)

Step-by-step explanation:

You are solving how much miles (further along) would the second car be after 5 hours.

The first car averages 40 miles per hour. 5 hours later, it will have averaged about 200 miles in 5 hours (40 x 5 = 200).

The second car averages 55 miles per hour. 5 hours later, it will have averaged about 275 miles in 5 hours (55 x 5 = 275)

Subtract: 275 - 200 = 75

The second car would have averaged 75 more miles than the first car.
