How can you use slope to determine whether the parallelogram is a rectangle?

Kazeer [188]

Step-by-step explanation:

To do this we need to calculate the slope of each side. If we can show that the slopes of the opposite sides are the same, then the opposite sides are parallel. The slopes of the opposites were the same, so ABCD is a parallelogram.

Value of this problem?

Rudik [331]

$\frac{4^3\times4^{-1}\times5^{-2}}{4^4\times5^{-3}\times5^0}=\frac{4^{3-1}\times5^{-2}}{4^4\times5^{-3+0}}\\=\frac{4^{2}\times5^{-2}}{4^4\times5^{-3}}=4^{2-4}\times5^{-2-(-3)}\\=4^{-2}\times5^{1}=\frac{5}{4^2}\\=\frac{5}{16}$

Which shapes have at least one pair of parallel sides?

elena-s [515]

Parallelograms and trapezoids always do.

(Note: "Parallelograms" includes rectangles, squares, and rhombussesses.)

Any polygon with more than 4 sides can have at least one pair of parallel sides,
but it's not guaranteed.

One member of the debate team is going to be chosen president. each member is equally likely to be chosen. the probability that

inessss [21]

Let
x-------> the probability that a boy is chosen
B------> number of boys in the debate team
G------> number of girls in the debate team

we know that
B+G=20-----> G=20-B-----> equation 1
probability that a boy is chosen=number of boys in the debate team/total of people
so
x=B/20-------> equation 2

the probability that a girl is chosen is 2/3 the probability that a boy is chosen
probability that a girl is chosen=(2/3)*x
probability that a girl is chosen=G/20
(2/3)*x=G/20-----> equation 3
substitute equation 1 in equation 3
(2/3)*x=[20-B]/20----> equation 4

resolve the equations system
x=B/20
(2/3)*x=[20-B]/20

using a graph tool
see the attached figure
the solution is
x=0.6
B=12
G=20-12-----> G=8

number of boys in the debate team is 12
number of girls in the debate team is 8
the probability that a boy is chosen is 0.6 ----> 60%
the probability that a girl is chosen is 0.6*(2/3)----> 0.4---> 40%

the answer is
number of girls in the debate team is 8
