Answer:

No, L and S are parallel.

Step-by-step explanation:

Perpendicular lines go directly opposite from each other, making a + looking arrangement. While parallel lines go in the exact same direction, making a = looking arrangement. The only way both S and L can both be perpendicular to R is if they are both parallel to each other. An illustration by yours truly is placed below to represent it visually.

                                                                    |   R

                                                                    |

                     S                                             |  

                                                                    |

Now, if this were on the outside of a sphere, then it would be totally possible to have three lines all be parallel, because they can curve with the sides of the sphere and create a triangle with all right angles.

According to DeMorgan 's theorem, the complement of W · X + Y · Z is W' + X' · Y' + Z'. Yet both functions are 1 for WXYZ = 1110
sergeinik [125]

Answer:

The parenthesis need to be kept intact while applying the DeMorgan's theorem on the original equation to find the compliment because otherwise it will introduce an error in the answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to DeMorgan's Theorem:

(W.X + Y.Z)'

(W.X)' . (Y.Z)'

(W'+X') . (Y' + Z')

Note that it is important to keep the parenthesis intact while applying the DeMorgan's theorem.

For the original function:

(W . X + Y . Z)'

= (1 . 1 + 1 . 0)

= (1 + 0) = 1

For the compliment:

(W' + X') . (Y' + Z')

=(1' + 1') . (1' + 0')

=(0 + 0) . (0 + 1)

=0 . 1 = 0

Both functions are not 1 for the same input if we solve while keeping the parenthesis intact because that allows us to solve the operation inside the parenthesis first and then move on to the operator outside it.

Without the parenthesis the compliment equation looks like this:

W' + X' . Y' + Z'

1' + 1' . 1' + 0'

0 + 0 . 0 + 1

Here, the 'AND' operation will be considered first before the 'OR', resulting in 1 as the final answer.

Therefore, it is important to keep the parenthesis intact while applying DeMorgan's Theorem on the original equation or else it would produce an erroneous result.

If 7x + 4 = -19 + 5x, then 2x – 14 equals<br>A-23<br>B 23<br>C-37<br>D-14​
drek231 [11]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we have the question,

7x+4 = -19 + 5x

Now we add 19 to both sides,

7x + 4 + 19 = -19 + 19 + 5x

7x + 23 = 5x

Now we subtract 7x from both sides,

23 = -2x

We divide -2 from both sides,

x = -23/2

Now we plug this in into 2x - 14,

2(-23/2) - 14 = -23-14 = -37

Our answer is C
