A city planner designs a park that is a quadrilateral with vertices at J(-1,1), K(1,3), L(5, -1), and M(-1, -3). There is an entrance to the park at the midpoint of each side of the park. A straight path connects each
entrance to the entrance on the opposite side. Assuming each unit of the coordinate plane represents 10
meters, what is the total length of the paths to the nearest meter? Round your answer to the nearest
whole number.
The total length of the paths is approximately __ meters.

the ratio of balloons to tables is 5: 2 and the constant variation is 5.

the equation is y=5x

y = 3x+4

step-by-step explanation:

to find the slope

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

    = (-8-4)/ (-4-0)

    = -12/-4

  = 3

using the slope intercept form of a line

y= mx+b

we know the slope is 3

we know the y intercept is 4 ( the point where it crosses the y axis or x=0)

y = 3x+4

answer: the resulting cross section is a rectangle. solution: a plane parallel to the base of a triangular prism will intersect a cross section that is the same shape as its bases. so the cross section is a triangle.
