Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

y = (-1/2)x + 4 is the equation of a straight line with y-intercept (0, 4) and slope -1/2.

To graph this, first plot the y-intercept (0, 4).

Recall that slope m = rise / run, and notice that the slope in this particular case is -1/2 = rise / run, or rise = -1 and run = 2.

Starting with your pencil point on (0, 4), move the point 2 units to the right (run = 2), arriving at (2, 4). Next, move your pencil point 1 unit down, to (2, 3).

Draw a straight line through (0, 4) and (2, 3).

Li Ping says a square with 3 inch sides has greater area than a parallelogram that is not a square but has sides that have the s

Kipish [7]

Answer:

Li Ping's statement makes sense.

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a square with side lengths a inches is given by, $A_1 = a^{2}$ .

Now, the area of a parallelogram with equal sides a inches, which is not a square is given by, $A_2 = ah$ , where, h is the perpendicular distance between the opposite sides.
