Rectangle tuvw is on a coordinate plane at t (a, b), u (a + 2, b + 2), v (a + 5, b − 1), and w (a + 3, b − 3). what is the slope of the line that is parallel to the line that contains side uv?

hello from mrbilldoesmath!

answer:

the domain is the set { -2, 0, 2, 3}

discussion:

the domain is the set of x values in the ordered pairs (x,y). taking the x, or first component, of each ordered pair gives   -2, 0, 2, 3.

use distributive property on all like terms and change your signs if you have a double negative or if you have positive/negative

slope =   (y2 -y1) ÷ (x2 -x1)

slope = (0 -0) / (-5, -7)

slope = 0 / -12 = 0

the slope of the line is zero.   it is perfectly horizontal.
