Answer:
In order to find the slope, you need to find the difference in the x values and the difference in the y values. To do this, you write out y2-y1/x2-x1, insert your x and y values, and get your answer. Then, you find your y-intercept (where the x value is 0).
D is halfway between A and B
so the coordinates of D are (2,2)
E is halfway between A and C so the coordinates of E are (-1,1)
now you need to find the gradient/slope of DE and BC using the formula:
<h3>
<u>G</u><u>r</u><u>a</u><u>d</u><u>i</u><u>e</u><u>n</u><u>t</u><u> </u><u>o</u><u>f</u><u> </u><u>D</u><u>E</u><u>:</u><u> </u></h3>
SUB IN COORDINATES OF D AND E
therefore the gradient of DE is 1/3.
<h3>
<u>G</u><u>r</u><u>a</u><u>d</u><u>i</u><u>e</u><u>n</u><u>t</u><u> </u><u>o</u><u>f</u><u> </u><u>B</u><u>C</u><u>:</u></h3>
<em>S</em><em>U</em><em>B</em><em> </em><em>I</em><em>N</em><em> </em><em>C</em><em>O</em><em>O</em><em>R</em><em>D</em><em>I</em><em>N</em><em>A</em><em>T</em><em>E</em><em>S</em><em> </em><em>O</em><em>F</em><em> </em><em>B</em><em> </em><em>A</em><em>N</em><em>D</em><em> </em><em>C</em>
<em></em>
therefore the gradient of BC is -2/-6 which simplifies to 1/3.
<h3>
therefore, BC and DE are parallel as they both have a gradient/slope of 1/3 and parallel lines have the same gradient</h3>
Hello from MrBillDoesMath!
Answer: N = 143
Discussion:
This one took some trial and error! At first I listed all 2 digit primes, looked at the list, but didn't know how to proceed. So, I took the smallest 2 digit primes numbers: 11 and 13 and wondered if their product, 13*11 = 143, could be represented as the sum of 3 consecutive primes. I went back to my list of primes, added groups of three consecutive numbers that seemed to be in the right range to give the desired sum, and stumbled on 43, 47, and 53!
43 + 47 + 53 = 143 !
Therefore N = 143. It's the sum of 43, 47, and 53 as well as the product of 11 and 13.
Thank you,
MrB
