1) gradient of line = Δ y ÷ Δ x
= (5 -2) ÷ (3 - (-6))
= ¹/₃
using the point-slope form (y-y₁) = m(x-x₁)
using (3,5)
(y - 5) = ¹/₃ (x -3)
y - 5 = ¹/₃x - 1
⇒ <span> y = ¹/₃ x + 4 [OPTION D]
</span>2) y = 2x + 5 .... (1)
<span> </span>y = ¹/₂ x + 6 .... (2)
by substituting y in (1) for y in (2)
2x + 5 = ¹/₂ x + 6
³/₂ x = 1
x = ²/₃
by substituting found x (2)
y = ¹/₂ (²/₃) + 6
y = ¹⁹/₃
∴ common point is (²/₃ , ¹⁹/₃) thus answer is FALSE [OPTION B]
3) Yes [OPTION A]
This is because the both have a gradient of 5 and if they have the same gradient then that means that the two lines are parallel to each other.
4) No [OPTION B]
Two lines are perpendicular if their gradients multiply to give - 1 and as such one is the negative reciprocal of the other. Since both gradients are ¹/₂ then they are actually parallel and not perpendicular.
Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
If you ask questions while their speaking it shows that you are paying attention to them. Avoiding eye contact could mean your thinking about something else or you aren't interested. Interrupting them is just being disrespectful. Leaning towards them doesn't really do anything other than you moving.
If it was in 10 years it would either be 2.6
