Answer from: silveryflight

The answer is:

$m_{AB}=-2$

$m_{BC}=\frac{1}{2}$

$m_{CD}=-\frac{3}{4}$

$m_{AD}=-\frac{3}{4}$

It is a trapezium because it has two parallel sides.

1. The formula for calculate the slope is the following:

$m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

2. Therefore, the slope of AB is:

$m_{AB}=\frac{3-(-1)}{-3-(-1)}\\m_{AB}=-2$

3. The slope of BC is:

$m_{BC}=\frac{5-3}{1-(-3)}\\m_{BC}=\frac{1}{2}$

4. The slope of CD is:

$m_{CD}=\frac{2-5}{5-1}\\m_{CD}=-\frac{3}{4}$

5. The slope of AD is:

$m_{AD}=\frac{2-(-1)}{5-(-1)}\\m_{AD}=\frac{1}{2}$

The slope of AD and BC are equal, therefore AD and BC are parallel, so the quadrilateral is a trapezium.

Answer from: bryanmcmillianjr

The calculate a slope we use the equation:

$m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}$ ; where is the slope, $(x_{1};y_{1})$ are the coordinates of the first point, and $(x_{2};y_{2})$ are the coordinates of the second point. The first and second points are arbitrary, we just choose a specific order b our own.

So, the problem is asking for the slope of AB, BC, CD and AD, which are sides of a quadrilateral figures. Now, we use each coordinates, replace them is the slope equations and get the result.

The slope of AB:

Coordinates are A(-1, -1) and B(-3, 3) .

$m_{AB} =\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}=\frac{3-(-1)}{-3-(-1)}=\frac{3+1}{-3+1} =\frac{4}{-2}=-2$

The slope of BC:

Coordinates are B(-3, 3) and C(1, 5)

$m_{BC} =\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}=\frac{5-3}{1-(-3)} =\frac{2}{1+3}=\frac{2}{4}=\frac{1}{2}$

The slope of CD:

Coordinates are C(1, 5) and D(5, 2)

$m_{CD} =\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}=\frac{2-5}{5-1}=\frac{-3}{4}$

The slope of AD:

Coordinates are A(-1, -1) and D(5, 2)

$m_{AD} =\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}=\frac{2-(-1)}{5-(-1)} =\frac{2+1}{5+1}=\frac{3}{6}=\frac{1}{2}$

According to these results, sides AB and BC are perpendicular because the slopes have opposite signs and inverse numbers. In addition, BC and AD are parallel, because they have the same slope. The graph is attached.

The coordinates of the vertices of quadrilateral abcd are a(−1, −1) , b(−3, 3) , c(1, 5) , and d(5,

Answer from: Quest

a) one student is chosen from classroom a, then a student is chosen from classroom b.

step-by-step explanation:

independent events are ones in which the probability of one event does not affect the probability of the second event.

one student is chosen from classroom a; this does not affect the chances of choosing a student from classroom b. this makes these independent events.

when one card is chosen from a standard deck and then set aside before a second card is chosen, the probability of the second card being chosen changes. this makes them dependent events.

when one student is chosen from classroom a and then a second student is chosen from classroom a, the probability of choosing the second student changes. this makes them dependent events.

when a letter is chosen from the alphabet and then a second letter is chosen, the probability of choosing the second letter changes. this makes them dependent events.
