<h3>Answer: No, they are not perpendicular</h3>

Explanation:

Compare each equation to the form y = mx+b

m = slope

The first equation has slope -1/3 and the second equation has slope 1/3

The slopes do not multiply to -1, so the lines aren't perpendicular.

The slopes aren't equal, so the line aren't parallel either.

Step-by-step explanation:

you plug 0 into the (x,y) into the equation. if your finding x you plug in 0 for y and versa.

so y = 9x -3 im going to find x

0 = 9x -3 subtract -3 from both sides

-3 = 9x divide by 9

x = -3

What is the solution to the inequality

Dvinal [7]

Answer:

p > 5 and p <-8

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, you first need to isolate p.

First add 6 on both sides of the equation:

$-6 + |2p+3| >7\\\\(+6) -6 + |2p+3| >7 +6\\\\2p + 3 > 13$

Then subtract 3 from both sides of the equation.

$2p+3-3>13-3\\\\2p > 10\\$

The divide both sides by 2.

$\dfrac{2p}{2}>\dfrac{10}{2}\\\\p>5$

Another solution is possible because of the absolute value.

If $|2p+3|>13$

Then $|2p+3|$

<em>Thus we can solve the second solution:</em>

$|2p+3|$

$2p+3$

Isolate P again by subtracting both sides by 3

$2p+3-3$

$2p$

Then divide both sides by 2:

$\dfrac{2p}{2}$

$p$
