Note that when two lines have slopes of m₁ and m₂, then
(i) If m₁ = m₂, then the lines are parallel.
(ii) If m₁*m₂ = -1, then the lines are perpendicular.
Let us evaluate the given lines.
a. y = 4x - 1 and 12x = 3y + 7
y = 4x - 1 => m₁ = 4
Write the second equation in standard form.
3y = 12x - 7
y = 4x - 7/3 => m₂ = 4.
m₁ = m₂.
Answer: PARALLEL
b. x - 7y = 10 and 2x + 14y = 21
In standard form,
7y = x - 10 or y = (1/7)x - 10/7 => m₁ = 1/7
14y = - 2x + 21 or y = -1/7 + 3/2 => m₂ = -1/7
m₁ ≠ m₂ and m₁*m₂ ≠ -1.
Answer: NEITHER
c. 5x + 6y = 18 and 18x - 15y = 36
In standard form,
6y = -5x + 18 or y = -(5/6)x + 3 => m₁ = -5/6
15y = 18x - 36 or y = (6/5)x - 12/5 => m₂ = 6/5
m₁*m₂ = -1
Answer: PERPENDICULAR
d. x =1 and y = 1
x = 1 => m₁ is undefined
y = 1 => m₂ = 0
m₁ ≠ m₂ and m₁*m₂ ≠ -1
Answer: NEITHER
Answer:
BC=4
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the distance formula
4
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
504 = 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 x 7
24 = 2 x 2 x 2 x 3
4.2x - 1.4y = 2.1
-1.4y = -4.2x + 2.1
y = (-4.2/-1.4)x + 2.1/-1.4
y = 3x - 1.5 <==
(4c - 3d)(3c + d) =
= 12c² + 4cd - 9cd - 3d² =
= <u>12c² - 5cd - 3d²</u>
