Answer: same.
Step-by-step explanation:
I'm going to use the slope formula which is
m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
where (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) are the two points the line goes through
Slope of line PQ
m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
m = (-6 - 8)/(-5 - (-7))
m = (-6 - 8)/(-5 + 7)
m = (-14)/(2)
m = -7
The slope of line PQ is -7
Slope of RS
m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
m = (0 - (-5))/(-2 - 3)
m = (0 + 5)/(-2 - 3)
m = (5)/(-5)
m = -1
The slope of line RS is -1
Because the slopes are NOT equal (one is -7 and the other is -1), this means the lines are NOT parallel.

Answer: Choice B) No, the lines have unequal slopes
Answer:
D. –5.2 + (–6.4) = –11.6
Step-by-step explanation:
First, you can eliminate A and C because 5.2 is positive. Since the red arrow is pointing left, it indicates that the number (-5.2) is negative.
Then, you look at the second arrow, the green one. It is pointing left, so it would be -6.4.
I hope this helps :)
