Some things we should know before we start:
- Parallel lines are lines that never meet and which are straight.
- Perpendicular lines are lines that intersect at a 90° angle.
A picture of different types of lines will be shown below
A picture of the graph will be shown below.
Looking at the graph, we can see that lines intersect and seem to have a 90°.
Therefore, they are perpendicular.
Best of Luck!
Unit analysis is a method used to convert from one unit of measure to another. In a unit analysis problem, we place measurements into fraction form, build a product of fractions, and eliminate unwanted units. The steps for performing a unit analysis are as follows: Determine what conversion facts are needed
(-8)/(2y-8)=(5/(y+4))-7y+(8/(y^2-16))
(-4)/(y-4)=(5/(y+4))-7y+(8/(y+4)(y-4))
((-4)(y+4))/((y+4)(y-4))=((5(y-4))/(y+4)(y-4))-(7y(y+4)(y-4))/(y+4)(y-4))+(8/(y+4)(y-4))
(-4(y+4))=(5(y-4))-(7y(y+4)(y-4))+8
-4y-16=5y-20-(7y(y^2-16))+8
-4y-16=5y-20-7y^3+112y+8
-4y-16=117y-7y^3-12
-4=(121-7y^2)(y)
None of these choices would be equal to -4
