Answer:  The correct option is (C)  Rotated parallel lines always remain parallel lines.

Step-by-step explanation:  We are given ton select the correct statement about the rotation of two parallel lines.

We know that two parallel lines have same slope.

So, let m = 2 be the slope of the two parallel lines and 4, 7 are the y-intercepts.

Then, the equations of the lines are given by

y=2x+4~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(i)\\y=2x+7~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(ii)

Let us rotate the lines through an angle of 90° clockwise.

The co-ordinates of the point (x, y), after rotating 90° clockwise becomes (y, -x).

We have

P(-1, 2) and Q(1, 6) are two points on the line (i) and R(-1, 5) and S(1, 9) are two points on the line (ii).

So, after rotation, they become

P(-1, 2)  ⇒  P'(2, 1),

Q(1, 6) ⇒  Q'(6, -1),

R(-1, 5)  ⇒  R'(5, 1),

S(1, 9)  ⇒  S'(9, -1).

So, slope of line (i) is

m_1=\dfrac{-1-1}{6-2}=-\dfrac{1}{2},

and the slope of line (ii) is

m_2=\dfrac{-1-1}{9-5}=-\dfrac{1}{2}.

Since, m_1=m_2,

so the slopes of the lines after rotation is again same, and hence they are again parallel to each other.

So, the angle of rotation (90° or 180° or 360°)does not matter, the parallel lines will always be parallel.

Thus, the rotated parallel lines always remain parallel lines.

Option (C) is correct.

C.
Rotating parallel lines by the same amount does not change their parallel nature.

I believe the answer is 4x + 8. you multiply 4 by x which makes 4x. Than you multiply 4 by 2, making 8.

-6x-4+5x=4<br> What is "x". Please show your work.
4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

first thing to do is combine like terms

now you would have -x-4=4

this is because you added -6x+5x

now you would add 4 to each side

now you would have-x=8

then you would divide the negative because x has to be positive

now you would have x= -8

that is your answer. if you any questions just ask :D

I know it’s hard to read, but if u can, please help!!
Elden [556K]

Answer:

  4th choice (if we guessed the blurry letters properly)

Step-by-step explanation:

The reflection maps ...

  (x, y) ⇒ (x -y)

Then the rotation maps ...

  (x, -y) ⇒ (y, x)

That is, R(-1, 4) becomes R'(4, -1), apparently matching point S, the only point at (4, -1). We can't read the letters, but we know that you only need to know where R ends up in order to select the correct answer.

Solve the system of equations below by graphing them with a pencil and paper. Choose the correct ordered pair (b, u).
Cloud [144]
U = -b + 21 . . . (1)
u = -2b + 30 . . . (2)
Equating (1) and (2),
-b + 21 = -2b + 30
-b + 2b = 30 - 21
b = 9
u = -9 + 21 = 12

Therefore, (b, u) = (9, 12).
