Answer: x > 5
Step-by-step explanation: To solve for <em>x</em> in this inequality, our goal is the same as it would be if this were an equation, to get x by itself on one side.
Since 3 is being subtracted from x, we add 3 to
both sides of the inequality to get x > 5.
When graphing x > 5, we have an open circle on 5 and the
open circle tells us that 5 is not part of our answer.
Then we draw an arrow going to the right to represent
all possible solutions to this inequality, any number greater than 5.
For lines to be parallel, the slopes have to be the SAME.
For lines to be perpendicular, the slopes have to be the exact opposite. (opposite sign and number)
For example(perpendicular):
slope is 2
the perpendicular slope is -1/2
slope is -4/5
the perpendicular slope is 5/4
12. line a and b are perpendicular
13. Line a: y = 3/5x + 1
Line b: y = 3/5x - 2/5
Line c: y = 4/6 + 5/3x
line a and b are parallel
14. Line a: y = 3x + 6
Line b: y = 6 - 3x
Line c: y = 2/3x + 6
Neither, none of them are parallel or perpendicular
15. Line a: y = -2/3 + 4/3x
Line b: y = -1/4 - 3/4x
Line c: y = 5 + 3/4x
line a and b are perpendicular
To answer this question I would need the original coordinates. Were you given a picture or coordinates of the original triangle?
