Line b passes through points (9, 1) and (1, 6). Line c passes through points (10, 7) and (2, 12). Are line b and line c parallel
1 answer:
<h2>Answer: Lines b & c are parallel.⇄</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
- When lines are perpendicular, the product of their slope is -1 (the slopes are negative reciprocal).
- When lines are parallel, they have the same slope.
Slope = ( y₂ - y₁) / (x₂ - x₁)
Slope of Line b = ( 6 - 1 ) ÷ ( 1 - 9 )
= 5 ÷ (- 8)
= - ⁵/₈
Slope of Line c = ( 12 - 7 ) ÷ ( 2 - 10 )
= - ⁵/₈
⇒ Line b ║ Line c

He pays $135 for 3 years. So that’s $45/year. Considering 900 is your 100%, how many percents are represented by $45 in 900?
1)
You can see that 900 = 9x100.
So you can divide 900 by 9 to get 100.
That means you can also divide 45 by 9 (it’s proportional)
You have 45 for 900, you divide by 9 so you get 5 for 100 -> 5%
Or 2)

It’s a cross-multiplication :
(45 x 100)/900 = 5%
So the interest rate is 5%.

The attached graph represents the graph of f(x) = (x - 1)^2 - 2
<h3>How to plot the graph?</h3>The equation is given as:
f(x) = (x - 1)^2 - 2
Next, we set x to -2, -1, 0, 1 and 2.
So, we have:
f(-2) = (-2 - 1)^2 - 2 = 7
f(-1) = (-1 - 1)^2 - 2 = 2
f(0) = (0 - 1)^2 - 2 = -1
f(1) = (1 - 1)^2 - 2 = -2
f(2) = (2 - 1)^2 - 2 = -1
This means that the table of values is
x f(x)
-2 7
-1 2
0 -1
1 -2
2 -1
Next, we plot the above points and connect them.
