Answer:
X = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Here is what I am picturing (not to scale)
A ----------------B-----------C
We are given the information of AB (which equals 3x + 1), BC (which equals 4x - 5), and AC (which equals 8x - 9).
With reference to the line, AB + BC = AC
So,
3x + 1 + 4x - 5 = 8x - 9
7x - 4 = 8x - 9
5 = x
Answer:
See below
Step-by-step explanation:
Many ways...
x+x-3
2x-6+3
5x-3x-3
(4x-6)/2
And the list goes on...
Parallel lines have the same slope. for example, the two lines y = 6x + 3 and
y = 6x - 5 are parallel because they have the same slope, 6x.
the slopes of perpendicular lines are opposite reciprocals, which means that you would flip the numbers of the fraction and make it negative. for example, the opposite reciprocal of -3x is 1/3x.
also, parallel lines never intersect, whereas perpendicular lines intersect at a 90 degree angle.
therefore, it isnt possible for two lines to be both parallel and perpendicular.
C
I believe is the right one
