Given c(x, 16), d(2, -4), e(-6,14) and f(-2,4) find the value of x so that cd is parallel to ef

x=-6

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

If two lines are parallel, then their slopes are the same

In this problem

slope CD=slope EF

The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to

step 1

Find the slope EF

we have

E(-6,14) and F(-2,4)

substitute the values in the formula

step 2

Find the slope CD

we have

C(x, 16) and D(2, -4)

substitute the values in the formula

Remember that

so

5x+2x=49

7x=49

x=7. 35 apples
