Answer:
A. Perpendicular
Step-by-step explanation:
Lines are perpendicular if their slopes are opposite reciprocals of each other. Opposite, meaning if positive, the other slope is negative, and if negative, the other slope is positive. Reciprocal meaning, the number is flipped upside down, turning fractions into whole numbers and vice versa.
1/9
-1/9
-9
The slopes are perpendicular
We’ll subtract the exponent in the denominator from the exponent in the numerator, keeping the base the same. Cant be simplified, because the base of the expression in the numerator is y and the base of the expression in the denominator is x.
Answer:
x= -2
Step-by-step explanation:
-3x-5=1
+5 on each side to balance the equation:
-3x=6
Divide by -3 on each side:
x=-2
