I'm going to use the slope formula which is
m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
where (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) are the two points the line goes through
Slope of line PQ
m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
m = (-6 - 8)/(-5 - (-7))
m = (-6 - 8)/(-5 + 7)
m = (-14)/(2)
m = -7
The slope of line PQ is -7
Slope of RS
m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
m = (0 - (-5))/(-2 - 3)
m = (0 + 5)/(-2 - 3)
m = (5)/(-5)
m = -1
The slope of line RS is -1
Because the slopes are NOT equal (one is -7 and the other is -1), this means the lines are NOT parallel.

Answer: Choice B) No, the lines have unequal slopes
Answer:
$35.50
Step-by-step explanation:
55.50-48= 7.5
2008-2005 = 3
7.5 divided by 3 = 2.5 per year
2005-2000 = 5 multipled by 2.5 = 12.5
48-12.5=35.5
Answer:
it looks like an acute angle
Answer:
x= no solution
Step-by-step explanation:
4x-2+x=-2+2x
We first add 4x+x on the left side.
5x-2=2+2x
We then add 2 to both sides.
5x=2x
The answer is no solution because we got no answer out of the equation.
