Answer:  The lines L1 and L2 are parallel.

Step-by-step explanation:  We are given to determine whether the following lines L1 and L2 passing through the pair of points are parallel, perpendicular or neither :

L1 : (–5, –5), (4, 6),

L2 : (–9, 8), (–18, –3).

We know that a pair of lines are

(i) PARALLEL if the slopes of both the lines are equal.

(II) PERPENDICULAR if the product of the slopes of the lines is -1.

The SLOPE of a straight line passing through the points (a, b) and (c, d) is given by

m=\dfrac{d-b}{c-a}.

So, the slope of line L1 is

m_1=\dfrac{6-(-5)}{4-(-5)}=\dfrac{6+5}{4+5}=\dfrac{11}{9}

and

the slope of line L2 is

m_2=\dfrac{-3-8}{-18-(-9)}=\dfrac{-11}{-9}=\dfrac{11}{9}.

Therefore, we get

m_1=m_2\\\\\Rightarrow \textup{Slope of line L1}=\textup{Slope of line L2}.

Hence, the lines L1 and L2 are parallel.

Given the formula I=prt, if p = 8000, r = 0.6, and t = 1, what is the value of "I"?
alexandr402 [8]
Well, 8000 (p) * 0.6 (r) = 4800, and if you multiply that by 1 (t) it's still 4800. So the value of I is 4800.

I am looking to decrease my bill by 25%. Can you look at my current plan and tell me what I can remove to achieve this reduction
Gennadij [26K]

Answer: $35

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we are informed that the current bill of the person is $140.00 per month and that the person wants to decrease the bill by 25%.

To know the amount that the person needs to deduct, we have to calculate 25% of $140.00. This will be:

= 25% of $140

= 25/100 × $140

= 1/4 × $140

= 0.25 × $140

= $35

The person will need to remove $35. The person will now pay ($140 - $35) = $105 monthly.
