Answer:

A vertical line has an infinite or undefined slope since the denominator is zero.

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallel lines by definition refers to lines that never intersect or meet since they have identical slopes. The slope of line is defined as;

(change in y)/(change in x)

For a vertical line, the y values are changing while the x values remain constant. The slope of this line will thus have a zero value in the denominator implying that its slope will not defined or will be infinity.

Find the value of y if the value of x is 2 for each equation and match it with the appropriate result.
Xelga [282]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  3, 0, 2, -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Put x=2 into each equation and solve for y.

<u>2 + y = 5</u>

  y = 5 -2

  y = 3

<u>3x +2y = 6</u>

  3·2 +2y = 6

  2y = 6 -6 = 0

  y = 0

<u>2x +y = 6</u>

  2·2 +y = 6

  y = 6 -4

  y = 2

<u>5x +3y = 4</u>

  5·2 +3y = 4

  3y = 4 -10 = -6

  y = -2

Make x the subject of the formula y= 2x +5
Kryger [21]

Answer:

x= (y-5)/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Isolate the x variable.

y= 2x +5

Subtract 5 from both sides.

y-5=2x

Divide both sides by 2.

(y-5)/2= x
