Answer:

Neither

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to find the slope of the line between line 1.

 

We use the formula:

 

y2 - y1 / x2 - x1

 

-2 - 1 / -7 - (-3)  ---> this gives us -3 / -4 or simply 3/4. So our slope for line 1 is 3/4.

 

Now using the formula, (y - y1) = m (x - x1) we find the line.

 

(y - 1) = 3/4 (x - (-3)) ---> (y - 1) = 3/4x + 9/4.

 

Now we add one to each side to get y = 3/4x + 13/4.

 

Now for line 2, we use the same process and formulas.

 

Find the slope of line 2.

 

4 - (-1) / 8 - 2 gives us 5/6. Our slope for line 2 is 5/6.

 

(y - (-1)) = 5/6 (x - 2).

 

(y + 1) = 5/6x - 5/3 ---> now subtract one from both sides to get...

 

y = 5/6x - 8/3.

 

Since the two lines do not have the same slope or the negative reciprocal of one slope being the other, the two lines through the given points are neither parallel nor are they perpendicular.

 

NEITHER

Grace wove a potholder with an area of 80 square inches. The lengths and widths of the sides are whole numbers. Which dimensions
docker41 [41]

Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the question :

Grace wove a potholder with an area of 80 square inches. The lengths and widths of the sides are whole numbers. Which dimensions make the most sense for a potholder?

Since the Area of the potholder = 80 sq inch

And the dimension of the potholder ; length and width are integers ; Hence, possible dimensions could be ;

Area = length × width

80 = length × width

(80, 1), (40, 2), (20, 4), (10, 8), (16, 5)

Potholders are fabrics sewn from the purpose of being used to handle pots and other kitchen equipments.

Usually the dimension are usually close, hence, the most sensible dimension a potholder with an area of 80 sq inch could have is 8 by 10 or vice-versa.

First, convert those inches to feet. 
7in =ish 0.5833333
(you find this by dividing 7/12 on a calculator)
Now you just square 9.583333333
9.583333333^2
9.583333333 * 9.583333333
91.84027777ish
Rounded to the nearest foot, means the answer is 92ft.
