Answer:

slope = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

the equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

y = - \frac{1}{2} x + 5 ← is in slope- intercept form

with slope m = - \frac{1}{2}

Given a line with slope m then the slope of a line perpendicular to it is

m_{perpendicular} = - \frac{1}{m} = - \frac{1}{-\frac{1}{2} } = 2

Consider the following equation x= r-h/y.Solve the equation for h
Flura [38]

x= r - h/y   subtract r from both sides

x-r = -h/y    multiply each side by -y

-y(x-r) = h

-xy +yr = h

Determine which of the lines, if any, are parallel. Explain.
MariettaO [177]

Answer:

Parallel lines have same slope but different y-intercept

None of the given equations have same slope. Therefore lines are not parallel.

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope of Line a: 4y +x=8 is -1/4

Slope of Line b: 2y + x = 4 is -1/2

Slope of Line c: 2y = -3x + 6 is -3/2
