Answer:

Parallel

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope - intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Both given equations are in this form, that is

y = $\frac{5}{4}$ x + 1 → m = $\frac{5}{4}$

y = $\frac{5}{4}$ x - 7 → m = $\frac{5}{4}$

Parallel lines have equal slopes thus the lines are parallel

A spinner has three sections. The table shows the results of spinning the arrow on the spinner 80 times. What is the experimenta

mihalych1998 [28]

The experimental probability is

(number of times it stopped over Sect. 2) / (total number of times you tried it)

Number of times it stopped in Section-2: 36

Total number of times you tried it: (20 + 36 + 24) = 80

Experimental probability of Section-2 = 36/80 = 9/20 = 45%

What number must be added to the expression below to complete the square? x^2+x. a.1/4 b.1/2 c.2 d.1

torisob [31]

Option a. 1/4 is the right answer

Step-by-step explanation:

Given expression is:

$x^2+x$

Here

we know that

a = x

In order to find the number which should be added

comparing with the formula

$(a+b)^2 = a^2+2ab+b^2$

$2ab = x\\2.x.b = x\\b=\frac{x}{2x}\\b = \frac{1}{2}$

So, we will add the square of 1/2 which is 1/4

Hence,

Option a. 1/4 is the right answer
