Understanding perpendicular and parallel lines are extremely important, especially in the engineering field when building infrastructures or houses because they need to calculate how they will keep a building stable. For example, bridges we see have a lot of perpendicular and parallel lines, that's because without those the bridge can't hold itself up, it needs support from the metals that are parallel and perpendicular.

hope this helps!!

STR and QTP are both equal 180
so PTS +PTR=180 andQTR+PTR=180 which means
PTS=QTR(for a shorter explanation they are staying against each other in a line cross

11y-110=4y-5
7y=105
y=105:7
y=15 grafe which means

Will give brainlest plz help!!!Which relation is a function?
Levart [38]

The correct answer is the graph in the top right corner because it is a constant function. The bottom left graph is also considered a function but is an absolute function. So both are technically correct.

PLEASE HELP ASAP!!! CORRECT ANSWER ONLY PLEASE!!!

Answer:   (-2, 5) and (2, -3)

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Graph the line y = -2x + 1 (which is in y = mx + b format) by plotting the y-intercept (b = 1) on the y-axis and then using the slope (m = -2) to plot the second point by going down 2 and right 1 unit from the first point:

        y - intercept = (0, 1)            2nd point = ( -1, 1).

Graph the parabola y = x² - 2x - 3 by first plotting the vertex and then plotting the y-intercept (or some other point):

y = x^2-2x-3\quad \rightarrow \quad a=1,\ b=-2,\ c=-3\\\\\text{axis of symmetry:}\ x = \dfrac{-b}{2a}\ \longrightarrow \ x=\dfrac{-(-2)}{2(1)}=\dfrac{2}{2}=1\\\\\text{y-value of vertex:}\ f(1) = (1)^2-2(1)-3\quad \longrightarrow \quad y = 1 - 2 - 3=-4\\\\\text{y-intercept:}\ f(0)= (0)^2-2(0)-3\ \longrightarrow \ y=0 - 0 - 3 = -3 \\

         vertex = (1, -4)                2nd point (y-intercept) = (0, -3)


<em>see attached</em> - the graphs intersect at two points:  (-2, 5) and (2, -3)
