Neither.
Parallel lines have the same slope.
Perpendicular lines have negative reciprocal slopes.
Rewriting the 2nd equation to solve for y,
You get:
Y=1/5x + 1/2
The first equation slope is negative, and the second is positive. However, the second slope is 1/5, and not 5/1 - which would be the negative reciprocal of (-1/5)from the first equation.
Hope that helps!
Answer:
The correct option is b.
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for standard deviation is

where,
is mean of the data and n is number of observation.
The variance of a stock's returns can be calculated by the above formula.
Variance of stock's returns is the average value of squared deviations from the mean.
Therefore the correct option is b.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: In your problem, you said that they are squared. However, it is not written as squared. We just have to multiply them.
We can use the FOIL method.
(3b - 5c)(3x + 5y)
6bx + 15by - 10cx - 25cy
There are no like terms, so that expression is our final answer.
