Part (a)
<h3>Answer: y1 and y3 are perpendicular</h3>
This is because the two slopes 2 and -1/2 multiply to -1. Perpendicular slopes multiply to -1 assuming neither line is vertical or horizontal.
=====================================================
Part (b)
Graph each line to see where they cross. The three points of intersection are
(0,4)
(2,-2)
(4,2)
The order of the points doesn't matter.
You could also form three systems of equations pairing up the equations, and solving each system. That way you can find the points of intersection. Graphing may be a better and faster route in my opinion. See the diagram below.

1.) Solve for x:
5 x + 7 = 3 x + 21
Subtract 3 x from both sides:
(5 x - 3 x) + 7 = (3 x - 3 x) + 21
5 x - 3 x = 2 x:
2 x + 7 = (3 x - 3 x) + 21
3 x - 3 x = 0:
2 x + 7 = 21
Subtract 7 from both sides:
2 x + (7 - 7) = 21 - 7
7 - 7 = 0:
2 x = 21 - 7
21 - 7 = 14:
2 x = 14
Divide both sides of 2 x = 14 by 2:
(2 x)/2 = 14/2
2/2 = 1:
x = 14/2
The gcd of 14 and 2 is 2, so 14/2 = (2×7)/(2×1) = 2/2×7 = 7:
Answer: x = 7

2.) Solve for x:
3 x - 2 (5 - x) = 3 x - 3 (x - 10)
-2 (5 - x) = 2 x - 10:
2 x - 10 + 3 x = 3 x - 3 (x - 10)
Grouping like terms, 3 x + 2 x - 10 = (3 x + 2 x) - 10:
(3 x + 2 x) - 10 = 3 x - 3 (x - 10)
3 x + 2 x = 5 x:
5 x - 10 = 3 x - 3 (x - 10)
-3 (x - 10) = 30 - 3 x:
5 x - 10 = 30 - 3 x + 3 x
3 x - 3 x = 0:
5 x - 10 = 30
Add 10 to both sides:
5 x + (10 - 10) = 10 + 30
10 - 10 = 0:
5 x = 30 + 10
30 + 10 = 40:
5 x = 40
Divide both sides of 5 x = 40 by 5:
(5 x)/5 = 40/5
5/5 = 1:
x = 40/5
The gcd of 40 and 5 is 5, so 40/5 = (5×8)/(5×1) = 5/5×8 = 8:
<span>Answer: x = 8

3.) Solve for x:</span>
5 (x + 1) = 3 (2 x + 3) + 5
3 (2 x + 3) = 6 x + 9:
5 (x + 1) = 6 x + 9 + 5
Grouping like terms, 6 x + 5 + 9 = 6 x + (9 + 5):
5 (x + 1) = 6 x + (9 + 5)
9 + 5 = 14:
5 (x + 1) = 6 x + 14
Expand out terms of the left hand side:
5 x + 5 = 6 x + 14
Subtract 6 x from both sides:
(5 x - 6 x) + 5 = (6 x - 6 x) + 14
5 x - 6 x = -x:
-x + 5 = (6 x - 6 x) + 14
6 x - 6 x = 0:
5 - x = 14
Subtract 5 from both sides:
(5 - 5) - x = 14 - 5
5 - 5 = 0:
-x = 14 - 5
14 - 5 = 9:
-x = 9
Multiply both sides of -x = 9 by -1:
(-x)/(-1) = -9
(-1)/(-1) = 1:
<span>Answer: x = -9</span>
