Answer:

Lines a and b are parallel

Lines a and c are perpendicular

Lines d and c are perpendicular

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to

m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}

Part 1) Find the slope of Line a

we have the points

(-3,4) and (3,6)

substitute in the formula

m=\frac{6-4}{3+3}

m=\frac{2}{6}

simplify

m_a=\frac{1}{3}

Part 2) Find the slope of Line b

we have the points

(-10,-3) and (-8,3)

substitute in the formula

m=\frac{3+3}{-8+10}

m=\frac{6}{2}

m_b=3

Part 3) Find the slope of Line c

we have the points

(0,5) and (3,-4)

substitute in the formula

m=\frac{-4-5}{3-0}

m=\frac{-9}{3}

m_c=-3

Part 4) Find the slope of Line d

we have the points

(4,-7) and (13,-4)

substitute in the formula

m=\frac{-4+7}{13-4}

m=\frac{3}{9}

simplify

m_d=\frac{1}{3}

Part 5) Compare the slopes

Remember that

If two lines are parallel then their slopes are the same

If two lines are perpendicular then their slopes are opposite reciprocal

we have

m_a=\frac{1}{3}

m_b=3

m_c=-3

m_d=\frac{1}{3}

therefore

Lines a and b are parallel (slopes are equal)

Lines a and c are perpendicular (slopes are opposite reciprocal)

Lines d and c are perpendicular (slopes are opposite reciprocal)

What is 4c minus 7.8 if c is 4
Debora [2.8K]
Here is a substitution problem. By saying c is 4, we can replace anywhere we see c with the number 4.

c = 4

4c - 7.8
= 4(4) - 7.8
= 16 - 7.8
= 8.2

Hope this helps! :)
