Answer: A.) Lines 2 and 4 are perpendicular

Step-by-step explanation:

Two lines are said to be perpendicular if the product of their slope gives - 1 . That is , if m_{1} is the slope of the first line and  m_{2} is the slope of the second line , if the two lines are perpendicular , then :

m_{1} m_{2} = -1  , which can also be written as ;

m_{1} = -1 /  m_{2}.

The equation of line in slope intercept form is given as :

y = mx + c , where m is the slope and c is the y - intercept.

Line one : y = - 1 , comparing with the equation of line in slope intercept form , it means line one has no slope

Line two : y = -1/2x - 2 , it has a slope of - 1/2

Line 3 : x = -4 , has no slope

Line 4 : y + 3 = 2 ( x - 2 )

Writing this in slope intercept form , we will make y the subject of the formula.

y + 3 = 2x - 4

y  = 2x -4 - 3

y = 2x - 7

This means that the slope of line 4 is 2.

Comparing line two and line four to check if they are perpendicular

- 1/2 x 2 = - 1 , surely , it obeys the perpendicularity rule , this means that line 2 and 4 are perpendicular

A prism is completely filled with 96 cubes that have edge length of 1/2 cm.
ch4aika [34]
I know this is kinda late, but...

You can solve this easily as long as you remember how to find the volume of a cube. v=a^3, when a means length. The length is 1/2 cm, or .5 cm.
 So, v+.5^3, which equals .125 cm. Each cube has a that volume. Now, multiply that by how many actual cubes there are, 96.

96 * .125 = 12
