Question

Can someone help me with the questions in the picture?

Answer 1

Answer:

9. Perpendicular

10. neither

11. Perpendicular

12. neither

Step-by-step explanation:

------------------

Slope Intercept Form: y = mx + b

* M is the slope

* B is the y intercept

------------------

Lines are parallel if they have the same slope (ex. If two equations have a slope of 2)

Lines are perpendicular if they have the opposite and the reciprocal slope (ex. If 1 equation has a slope of 3 and another equation has a slope of - $\frac{1}{3}$ )

------------------

9. Perpendicular: The slopes are reciprocal of each other and one of them is negative

10. Neither: The lines are not perpendicular because the slopes are both negative

11. Perpendicular: If you plot y=5 it is a horizontal line through 5. If you plot x=-3 it is vertical line through -3. These lines intercept and are perpendicular.

12. Neither: The slopes of both equations need to be the same to be parallel

• Put both equations into y=mx+b
• y = 1/2x -2 AND y = -1/2x -2
