we have

-x+4y=20

Isolate the variable y

4y=x+20

y=\frac{1}{4}x+5

the slope m of the given line is

m=\frac{1}{4}

we know that

If two lines are parallel , then their slopes are the same

so

m1=m2

if two lines are perpendicular, then the product of their slopes is equal to minus one

so

m1*m2=-1

we will proceed to verify each case to determine the solution

<u>case A)</u> -x+4y=8

<u>Isolate the variable y</u>

4y=x+8

y=\frac{1}{4}x+2

the slope  is

m2=\frac{1}{4}

Compare the slope of the line of the case A) with the slope of the given line

m1=\frac{1}{4}  -----> slope given line

m2=\frac{1}{4} ----> slope line case A)

m1=m2 --------> the lines are parallel

<u>case B)</u> 4x+y=-1

<u>Isolate the variable y</u>

y=-4x-1

the slope  is

m2=-4

Compare the slope of the line of the case B) with the slope of the given line

m1=\frac{1}{4}  -----> slope given line

m2=-4 ----> slope line case B)

m1*m2=\frac{1}{4}*-4=-1 --------> the lines are perpendicular

<u>case C)</u> y=-\frac{1}{4}x+6

the slope  is

m2=-\frac{1}{4}

Compare the slope of the line of the case C) with the slope of the given line

m1=\frac{1}{4}  -----> slope given line

m2=-\frac{1}{4} ----> slope line case C)

m1\neq m2

m1*m2\neq-1

therefore

the line case C) and the given line are neither parallel nor perpendicular

<u>case D)</u> y=-4x-3

the slope  is

m2=-4

Compare the slope of the line of the case D) with the slope of the given line

m1=\frac{1}{4}  -----> slope given line

m2=-4 ----> slope line case D)

m1*m2=\frac{1}{4}*-4=-1 --------> the lines are perpendicular

Now see if you can solve these word problems about time and distance.
ladessa [460]

Answer:

3.5 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Ediburgh -------------------------------350 miles-------------------------London

Let the distance traveled by train from Edin to London be "x"

hence the distance traveled by train from London to Edin would be "350-x"

  • The rate of Edin to London train is 60
  • The rate of London to Edin train is 40

Let the time they meet be"t"

Now, we know distance formula to be D = RT

Where

D is distance

R is rate

and

T is time

<u>Train from Edin to London:</u>

x = 60t

<u>Train from London to Edin:</u>

350-x = 40t

Solving for x:

350 - 40t = x

We put this into first equation:

x = 60t

350 - 40t = 60t

350 = 100t

t = 350/100

t = 3.5

They meet after 3.5 hours

In 1 and 2, use the table below that shows information about squares.
frutty [35]

1. The table has a constant of proportionality of 4, therefore, the perimeter and side length of squares are proportional.

2. Equation for the proportion is, y = 4x.

Perimeter = 48 cm.

<h3>What is the Equation of a Proportional Relationship?</h3>

The equation that defines a proportional relationship is, y = kx, where k is the constant of proportionality between variables x and y.

1. For the table given:

y = perimeter

x = side length

k = constant of proportionality = 8/2 = 16/4 = 24/6 = 4.

Since k is the same all through, the equation can be modelled as y = 4x, which means the perimeter and side length of squares are proportional.

2. Using the equation, y = 4x,the perimeter (y) of a square when its side length is 12 (x) is:

y = 4(12)

y = 48 cm.

The perimeter (y) of the square is: 48 cm.
