I'm going to use the slope formula which is
m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
where (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) are the two points the line goes through
Slope of line PQ
m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
m = (-6 - 8)/(-5 - (-7))
m = (-6 - 8)/(-5 + 7)
m = (-14)/(2)
m = -7
The slope of line PQ is -7
Slope of RS
m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
m = (0 - (-5))/(-2 - 3)
m = (0 + 5)/(-2 - 3)
m = (5)/(-5)
m = -1
The slope of line RS is -1
Because the slopes are NOT equal (one is -7 and the other is -1), this means the lines are NOT parallel.

Answer: Choice B) No, the lines have unequal slopes
Due to the difference in the interest rate and the quarterly compounding, Joshua will have $212.24 more than Josiah.
Step-by-step explanation:
Giving the following information:
Joshua:
Initial investment (PV)= $750
Interest rate (i)= 0.0341/4= 0.008525
Number of periods (n)= 18*4= 72 quarters
Josiah:
Initial investment (PV)= $750
Interest rate (i)= 0.0285
Number of periods (n)= 18 years
To calculate the future value of each one, we need to use the following formula:
FV= PV*(1 + i)^n
Joshua:
FV= 750*(1.008525^72)
FV= $1,381.98
Josiah:
FV= 750*(1.0285^18)
FV= $1,169.74
Due to the difference in the interest rate and the quarterly compounding, Joshua will have $212.24 more than Josiah.
Answer:
the answer is A
okay that it have a nice day
2.1 ÷ 1.488 = 1.41
1.41 rounded to the nearest tenth is 1.4
so your answer is 1.4
It is either A or D, but I think it’s A
