Answer:

How you know that lines are parallel to each other is if they go on forever and they never intersect.

Another way you can find out if your lines are parallel is if they have the same slope, AND different y-intercepts. They HAVE to have different y-intercepts cause I’d they don’t it won’t be parallel and they HAVE to have the same slope cause I’d not then it also wouldn’t be parallel.

Step-by-step explanation:

I hope it helps! Have a great day!

Using linear function concepts, it is found that lines are parallel if they have the same slope.

<h3>What is a linear function?</h3>

A linear function is modeled by:

y = mx + b

In which:

  • m is the slope, which is the rate of change, that is, by how much y changes when x changes by 1.
  • b is the y-intercept, which is the value of y when x = 0, and can also be interpreted as the initial value of the function.

Parallel lines have the same inclination, that is, if two lines are parallel, they have the same slope.

If p(x) = x2 – 1 and q(x) = 5(x-1) which expression is equivalent to (p – q)(x)?
lilavasa [31]

Answer:

Option C is correct.

The expression which is equivalent to (p-q)(x)  is, x^2 -1 - 5(x-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: p(x) = x^2 -1 and q(x) = 5(x-1)

To find the expression which is equivalent to (p-q)(x):

here p and q both are function assuming;

we can write the expression :

(p-q)(x) = p(x) - q(x) = x^2 -1 - 5(x-1)

therefore, the expression which is equivalent to (p-q)(x)  is;   x^2 -1 - 5(x-1)

15. Given a triangle with angle measures 35º and 25°. Find the measure of the third angle and classify
STatiana [176]

Answer: 120° obtuse.

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the angles in a triangle is 180°. Since two of the angles given are 35° and 25°, the third angle will be:

= 180° - (35° + 25°)

= 180° - 60°

= 120°

This is an obtuse angle since it's greater than 90° but less than 180°
