Answer:

Neither

Step-by-step explanation:

When you rearrange the equation 3x+2y=1 in the form of y=mx+c

you get:

2y=-3x+1

y=-\frac{3}{2} x+0.5

And if you compare it with the equation y= -x -1

You can see that the gradient is not the same, so it means it is not parallel.

To get if it is perpendicular you need to see if the two gradients multiply to give the value -1 but when you multiply

-\frac{3}{2}×-1= 3/2 so it is not perpendicular as well

I hope it is right, feel free to point out anything wrong or you're unsure of :)

Answer:

neither

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallel lines have equal slopes

The product of the slopes of perpendicular lines equals - 1

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

3x + 2y = 1 ( subtract 3x from both sides )

2y = - 3x + 1 ( divide each term by 2 )

y = - \frac{3}{2} x + \frac{1}{2} ← in slope- intercept form

with slope m = - \frac{3}{2}

y = - x - 1 ← is in slope- intercept form

with slope m = - 1

Since the slopes are not equal then the lines are not parallel

- \frac{3}{2} × - 1 = \frac{3}{2} ≠ - 1

Then the lines are not perpendicular

Find the GCF (Greatest Common Factor) of 64 and 144
valkas [14]

Answer: 16

Step-by-step explanation:

if we were to list all the factors of 64 and 144

64= 1,2,4,8,8,16,32,64

144= 1,2,3,4,6,8,9,12,12,16,18,24,36,48,72,144

therefore the GCF of 64 and 144 is 16
