Answer:

Slope of PQ = 0

Slope of MN = infinity

PQ and MN are perpendicular to each other

Step-by-step explanation:

for any two points  (x1, y1),  (x2, y2)given in coordinate plane slope is given by

y1 - y2/x1-x2\\\\For \ line \ PQ\\slope = 2 - 2/-8-4 = 0\\\\For \ line \ MN \\slope = 6 - (-8)/8-8 = 1/0 = infinity\\\\

For any line if slope is zero it is parallel  to X axis and perpendicular to Y axis

For any line if slope is infinity it is parallel  to Y axis and perpendicular to X axis

Also we know X and Y are perpendicular to each other.

Since slope of PQ is zero it is parallel  to X axis and perpendicular to Y axis

Since slope of MN is infinity it is parallel  to Y axis and perpendicular to X axis.

Thus two lines PQ and MN are perpendicular to each other.

Answer

Given,

Points of the line PQ are (-8,2) and (4,2)

Slope of the line

m_1 = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

m_1 = \frac{2-2}{4+8}

m_1 = 0

Points of the line MM are (8,-6) and (8,-8)

Slope of the line

m_2 = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

m_2 = \frac{2-2}{4+8}

Line PQ is parallel to x-axis and pass through y = 2.

Line MN is parallel to y-axis and pass through x = 8.

Both line intersect at (8,2).

Check all statements that are equivalent to If the sky is not clear, then you don't see the stars ? a. Clear sky is necessary an
IrinaVladis [17]

Answer: The answer is G

Step-by-step explanation:

If you don't see the stars, then the sky is not clear. This statement is equivalent to saying "If the sky is not clear, then you don't see the stars", because if you rearrange both statements you will find out that they are equivalent to each other.

Mark out all the words in each statement, you will discover that at the end you will have no word left on both side, its just as good as saying 1 - 1 = 0.
