Question

Select whether the pair of lines is parallel, perpendicular, or neither. y−4=3(x+5), y+3=−13(x+1)

Answer 1

Answer:

neither

Step-by-step explanation:

parallel lines will have the same number next to the x

perpendicular lines will have the negative reciprocal number next to the x

(for example 2 and -1/2 are negative reciprocals)

y−4=3(x+5)

parenthesis first

y−4=3x+15

y=3x+19

y+3= −13(x+1)

y+3= −13x−13

y= −13x−16

3x and −13x are neither the same nor negative reciprocals of each other so

the answer is neither
