Answer:By definition, perpendicular line are two lines that intersect at right angles. In other words, the angle made by two lines should be 90°. Therefore, the use of distance formula does not help because it only tells you if the sides are equal. It does not tell you about the intercepted angle.
A technique that can help you to know if two straight lines are perpendicular is is you find their slopes. Let's say the slope of line 1 is m1 and the slope of line 2 is m2. If m1*m2 yields a product of -1, then the lines are perpendicular. This is because if m1 is the negative reciprocal of m2, the lines are perpendicular. But if m1=m2, the lines are parallel, meaning they don't intersect at all.
Therefore, the answer is: Find the slopes and show that their product is -1.
hope it help
Answer:
C. x + 9 = 11
Step-by-step explanation:
We are trying to identify which of the equations does not match with the others. In this case, solve for x in each equation:
Option A):
6 + x = 9
Subtract 6 from both sides:
6 (-6) + x = 9 (-6)
x = 9 - 6
x = 3
Option B):
15 = x + 12
Subtract 12 from both sides:
15 (-12) = x + 12 (-12)
15 - 12 = x
x = 3
Option C):
x + 9 = 11
Subtract 9 from both sides:
x + 9 (-9) = 11 (-9)
x = 11 - 9
x = 2
Option D):
7 + x = 10
Subtract 7 from both sides:
x + 7 (-7) = 10 (-7)
x = 10 - 7
x = 3
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
As you can tell, all the equations end with x = 3 as there answers except C. x+9=11, making (C) your answer.

240 miles
d=48(5) which equals 240
5x - 20y = 60...reduce by dividing by 5
x - 4y = 12
this is the same as the other equation....therefore, it is the same line...meaning infinite solutions
=============
y - 7x = -14
y = 7x - 14.....slope = 7, y int = -14
7y - 49x = -2
7y = 49x - 2
y = 7x - 2/7.....slope is 7, y int is -2/7
if the slopes are the same, but the y int are different, then u have a parallel lines with no solutions
