Question

Are the following lines parallel, perpendicular, or neither?
y = -7x + 12
- 7y = x + 56
Select one:
a. Neither
b. Perpendicular
c. Parallel

Answer 1

a. Neither

Answer 2

they are not besides each other and when they meet they do not form a 90 degree angle

Answer 3

u hv to compare ur equation of line with standard equation

Answer 4

standard equation of line is
y=mx+c

Answer 5

so the slope of ur first equation of line is
m1=-7

Answer 6

and the slope of ur second equation of line is
m2=-1/7

Answer 7

2 lines will b parallel
if m1=m2

Answer 8

2 lines will b perpendicular with each other
if m1*m2=-1

Answer 9

a
