A rectangle is graphed on the coordinate grid. On a coordinate plane, side p has points (1, 4) and (3, 6), side q has points (3, 6) and (6, 3), side r has points (4, 1) and (6, 3), and side s has points (4, 1) and (1, 4).

Which represents the equation of the side that is parallel to side s?
y = negative x + 9
y = negative x minus 3
y = x + 9
y = x minus 3

explanation

the graph has a slope of 1/3 because each time you move up 1, you go to the right 3. so, slope = rise/run = 1/3. we can cross choice a off the list since we want a slope of 3, rather than 1/3.

the first table shown has a slope of -3. this is because the rise is -6 and the run is 2, so slope = rise/run = -6/2 = -3. note how x increases by 2 each time (run) and y drops by 6 each time (rise). choice b can be eliminated.

the second table has a slope of 3. each time x goes up by 1, the y values increase by 3. slope = rise/run = 3/1 = 3. alternatively you can use the slope formula to prove that the slope is 3 here. use any two rows of values to generate the two points. choice c is one of the answers

the third table also has a slope of 3. let's use the slope formula to prove as such. i'm going to use the first two rows of the table. so i'll use the two points (2,1) and (5,10)

m = slope

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m = (10-1)/(5-2)

m = 9/3

m = 3 so we get a slope of 3

choice d is the other answer

relating to or denoting a system of numbers and arithmetic based on the number ten, tenth parts, and powers of ten.

step-by-step explanation:

step-by-step explanation:

there is not enough information in the problem to solve.

14.3

step-by-step explanation:

add all the numbers together.

9 + 12 + 15 + 16 + 17 + 17 = 86

now, divide 86 by how many numbers we have: 6.

86 / 6 = 14.3
