Which statement explains how the lines 2x + y = 4 and y = one halfx + 4 are related?

Answer:

They are perpendicular

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem .

we will convert the equations in slope intercept form.

Slope intercept  form of equation is y = mx+c

where m is slope of line and c is y intercept.

________________________________

equation 1 is

2x+y = 4

=> y =4 - 2x or y = -2x + 4

comparing it with y = mx + c

m = -2  , c = 4

_________________________________________

equation 2 is y = one halfx + 4 ( one half is same as 1/2)

so equation is

y = x/2 +4

comparing it with y = mx + c

m = 1/2  , c = 4

_________________________________________

Now lets evaluate options

They are parallel.  wrong option

For lines to be parallel slope should be same.

But here slope are different -2 and 1/2 .

Thus lines are not parallel.

__________________________________________

They are perpendicular.  correct option

For lines to be perpendicular, product of slope should be equal to -1.

-2*1/2 = -1

we can see that product of slope should be equal to -1 .

Thus lines are  perpendicular

______________________________________

They are the same line.  wrong option

For lines to be same both slope and y intercept should  be same.

Y intercept is same but the slopes are different -2 and 1/2  .

Thus lines are not  the same line.

__________________________________________

They are not related.       wrong option

As we have found that the lines are perpendicular .

So this option is intuitively wrong

Milo is a running back on his middle school football team. On his first running play he netted -8 yards, and on his second runni
lidiya [134]
To find average, add up the values given and then divide that number by the amount of values that you added to make the larger number.
For example:
If he ran -8 yards first and -6 yards second and they are asking you to find the average, add -8 and -6. You get -14. If you then divide by 2 because you added 2 numbers together, you end up with -7.

Hope this helps!

Answer:

x is less than or equal to negative 14.

Step-by-step explanation:

so for now we should pretend that the greater than or equal to is an equal sign, and simplify the problem to get x alone on a side

remove 5 from each side

-x/3=1/3-5

-x/3=14/3

multiply both sides by 3

-x=14

x=-14

so we can now replace the equal sign with the equal or greater to, so x is less than or equal to -14
