Answer:

Perpendicular

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the slopes m of the segments using the slope formula.

m = \frac{y_{2}-y_{1}  }{x_{2}-x_{1}  }

Parallel lines have equal slopes

The product of the slopes of perpendicular lines equals - 1

(x₁, y₁ ) = A(0, 0) and (x₂, y₂ ) = B(e, f)

m_{AB} = \frac{f-0}{e-0} = \frac{f}{e}

Repeat with (x₁, y₁ ) = C(0, e) and (x₂, y₂ ) = D(f, 0)

m_{CD} = \frac{0-e}{f-0} = - \frac{e}{f}

Thus AB and CD are perpendicular since \frac{f}{e} × - \frac{e}{f} = - 1

Nutka1998 [239]
\frac{17}{18}-\frac{8}{9}=x
You must find a common denominator(bottom)
\frac{8}{9}×\frac{2}{2}=\frac{16}{18}
\frac{17}{18}-\frac{16}{18}=\frac{1}{18}
Your answer is x=\frac{1}{18}

What is an imaginary number?
trapecia [35]

An imaginary number is a complex number that can be written as a real number multiplied by the imaginary unit i, which is defined by it's property i² = −1. The square of an imaginary number bi is −b². For example, 5i is an imaginary number, and it's square is −25.

What is the solution to the following system of equations 4x + 2 = -2y 6y - 18 = 6x
Pavel [41]

Answer:

The solution to the system of equations are;

x = -4/3

y = 5/3

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the Solution, we would carry the Operation simultaneously.

4x + 2 = -2y .........(i)

6y - 18 = 6x ..........(ii)

First let's rearrange the equations, to make the journey smoother

2y + 4x = -2 ...........(iii)

6y - 6x = 18 ...........(iv)

Let's Multiply equation (III) by 3 so as to have a uniform spot to begin elimination.

3.2y + 3.4x = -2 . 3

6y + 12x = -6............... (v)

Let's subtract equation (v) from equation (iv)

= 0y - 18x = 24

-18x = 24

x = - 24 / 18

x = -4/3

Let's substitute (x = -4/3) in equation (ii), so that we can solve for the value of y:

6y - 18 = 6x

6y - 18 = 6 (-4/3)

6y - 18 = -8

6y = -8 + 18

6y = 10.

y = 10 / 6

y = 5/3

The solution to the system of equations are;

x = -4/3

y = 5/3
