wow

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the equation for line p is y=-8/3 x + 10/3

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

yes, so slopes of p and k are not equal so they're not ||

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

now, find the product of slopes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so the slopes are not opposite and reciprocal, neither are they the same, so what does that tell you?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

they are the same line?

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

for them to be same, they need to have same slope atleast, so NO

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so they are neither perpendicular nor parallel...

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

just trading the options ha... :D thats right btw, the lines are not perps cuz product of slopes is not -1 the lines are not || cuz they dont have same slope

OpenStudy (anonymous):

THanks!

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

np :)
