Answer:
perpendicular
Step-by-step explanation:
perpendicular if the product of their slopes is equal to -1
Parallel lines have equal or identical slopes
The error is that both sides of the equation have a variable. So if you were to combine your like terms, then you'd leave one side without a number and if your teacher is saying there is a left over number then it will be 0
Answer:
1) False. 2) True. 3) True. 4) False.
Step-by-step explanation:
1) False. The force of gravity will drive it down. The path will form a parabola.
2) True. There is no variation in the velocity in the horizontal axis and no force applied so the acceleration is zero.
3) True. The travel time depends on the height and the acceleration of gravity, and independent of the velocity of the rocket at launch.
4) False. The travel distance depends on the initial velocity of the rocket (at launch).

==============================================
Explanations:
- This is discrete because we can't have half a basketball, or any non-whole decimal value to represent the number of basketballs. We can only consider positive whole numbers {1,2,3,4,...}. A discrete set like this has gaps between items. In other words, the midpoint of 2 and 3 (the value 2.5) isn't a valid number of basketballs.
- This is continuous because time values are continuous. We can take any two different markers in time, and find a midpoint between them. For example, the midpoint of 5 minutes and 17 minutes is 11 minutes since (5+17)/2 = 22/2 = 11. Continuous sets like this do not have any gaps between items. We can consider this to be densely packed.
- This is the same as problem 1, so we have another discrete function. You either score a bullseye or you don't. We can't score half a bullseye. The only possible values are {1,2,3,4,...}
- This is similar to problem 2. This function is continuous. Pick any two different positive real numbers to represent the amount of gallons of water. You will always be able to find a midpoint between those values (eg: we can have half a gallon) and such a measurement makes sense.
So in short, always try to ask the question: Can I pick two different values, compute the midpoint, and have that midpoint make sense? If so, then you're dealing with a continuous variable. Otherwise, the data is discrete.
