If two lines are parallel which statement must be true? A.Their slopes are zero. B.Their slopes are negative reciprocals. C. The
stepan [7]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallel lines have the same gradient.

A line with a slope of zero is a horizontal line. Although two lines that have a slope of zero will result in two parallel lines, not all parallel lines are horizontal lines. Since the question is asking for which statement <u>must</u> be true, option A is incorrect.

If the slopes of two lines are negative reciprocals, they are perpendicular to each other. This is because the product of the gradients of 2 perpendicular lines is -1. Let the gradient of the first line be A and the other be B.

AB= -1

A =   - \frac{ 1}{B}

B =  -  \frac{1}{A}

Thus, option B is incorrect too.

Undefined slopes gives vertical lines. Like option A, if two lines have an undefined slope, they will be parallel to each other. However since parallel lines are nit necessarily vertical lines, option C is also incorrect.

The Rawlins family has travelled 600 km on their vacation. This has taken them 8 hours. If they continued at the same rate, how
spin [16.1K]

Answer:

B. 28 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

GIVEN :- <em>Time taken by family to travel 600 km is 8 hours</em>

CALCULATIONS :-

<em>To calculate the time to travel 2100 km, we need to calculate distance traveled in 1 hour</em>

<em>Distance traveled in 1 hour = 600 km ÷ 8</em>

<em>                                              = 75 km</em>

<em>Time required to travel 2100 km = 2100 ÷ 75</em>

<em>                                                         = </em><em>28 hours</em>

Therefore time required to travel 2100 km is 28 hours.

A student is trying to solve the system of two equations given below: equation p: y z = 6 equation q: 3y 4z = 1 which of these i
Vadim26 [7]

<u>Option C is correct </u><u>(y + z = 6) ⋅ −3</u>

What is a linear equation in math?

  • A linear equation only has one or two variables.
  • No variable in a linear equation is raised to a power greater than 1 or used as the denominator of a fraction.
  • When you find pairs of values that make a linear equation true and plot those pairs on a coordinate grid, all of the points lie on the same line.

As per the statement -

A student is trying to solve the system of two equations given below:

Equation P:   y + z = 6              ....[1]

Equation Q:  3y + 4z = 1           ....[2]

Multiply the equation [1] by -3 to both sides we have;

-3 .( y + z = 6 ) ⇒ -3y -3z = -18..........(3)

                   

Add equation [2] and [3] to eliminate the y-term;

z = -17

Therefore, the  possible step used in eliminating the y-term is, (y + z = 6) ⋅ −3

A student is trying to solve the system of two equations given below: Equation P: y + z = 6 Equation Q: 3y + 4z = 1 Which of these is a possible step used in eliminating the y-term?

(y + z = 6) ⋅ 4

(3y + 4z = 1) ⋅ 4

(y + z = 6) ⋅ −3

(3y + 4z = 1) ⋅ 3
