Answer:
B. The two lines are neither parallel nor perpendicular.
Step-by-step explanation:
First, put both lines into the same format. In this example, we're going to use y=mx+b format.
x - 4y = -9
-4y = -x + -9
y = (-x + -9) / -4
y = (x+9)/-4
y = (-1/4)x + (-9/4)
y = 3x - 7
If two lines are parallel, they have the same slope. (ie 4 and 4)
If two lines are perpendicular, one line's slope is the negative reciprocal of the other. (ie 4 and -1/4)
Neither is true here.
I'm assuming you're looking for the dimensions of the plot. I'm going with that. ;) If the length of the plot is 5 meters longer than the width, then L = w + 5. The area for a rectangle is L*w, and we have an area value of 20,000 so our formula is 20000=(w+5)(w) and

. We will bring the 20,000 over by subtraction and set the polynomial equal to 0 to factor and solve for w.

Solving for w we get values of w=138.9 and -143.9. Of course the 2 things in math that will never EVER be negative are time and distance/length, so -143.9 is out. Our width is 138.9 and the length is 138.9 + 5 so the length is 143.9. And there you go! Hope that's what you needed!
