If they are parallel they will have the same slope , m

So in y = mx + c, if there are two equations which both have the same m value they will be parallel.
If the lines are perpendicular they'll have slopes like this: 1/2 to -2/1 - where they flip and a negative gets added.

In the equations: 10x + 5y = -5 , and y = -2x + 6
We can rearrange 10x + 5y = -5 to be in the form y = mx + c
10x + 5y = -5
5y = -5 - 10x
y = -1 - 2x
y = -2x - 1

Since y = -2x - 1 and y = -2x + 6 both have the same slope of -2 they are parallel!

Answer: The sample size would be needed = 385

Step-by-step explanation:

Let p be the prior population proportion.

Margin of error = E

When not estimate of p is given , the formula to calculate the minimum sample size <em>n</em> = $0.25(\dfrac{z^*}{E})^2$ , where z* = critical value for given confidence interval.
