Answer:
parallel: -1/2
perpendicular: 2
Step-by-step explanation:
lines that are parallel have the same slope because they never intersect
lines that perpendicular, have the opposite reciprocal slope.
y = mx + b
where m is the slope
y = -1/2x + 6
-1/2 is the slope.
the slope in the equation given: -1/2
the slope parallel to the line given : -1/2
the slope perpendicular : opposite reciprocal, so the opposite of -1/2 is 1/2 and the reciprocal of 1/2 is 2.
For two line segments to be parallel, their slopes must be equal.
Therefore slope of AB must be equal to slope of CD
which is, option 3
<span> (y4-y3)/(x4-x3)=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)</span>
Step-by-step explanation:
a.
simply add both equations
x + y = 2
-3x - y = 5
----------------
-2x + 0 = 7
x = -7/2
x + y = 2
-7/2 + y = 2
y = 2 + 7/2 = 4/2 + 7/2 = 11/2
b.
1/2 x + 2y = -13
x - 4y = 8
first multiply the first equating by 2
x + 4y = -26
x - 4y = 8
--------------------
2x + 0 = -18
x = -18/2 = -9
x - 4y = 8
-9 - 4y = 8
-4y = 17
y = -17/4
Answer: x= -6 x=6
Step-by-step explanation:
expand the equation so you get (x-6)(x+6) and then set the equal to zero and solve
