Question

Determine whether the lines are parallel, perpendicular, or neither. Justify your answer. y = 2x - 8

Answer 1

Answer:

They are parallel, they will never intersect.

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice that they have exactly the same steepness, which means their slopes are identical. The only difference between the two lines is the y-intercept. If we shifted one line vertically toward the y-intercept of the other, they would become the same line.

Answer 2

X/2 + 6

This is the simplest form because you can’t combine x with 6.
