nikato · Answer

can you find the slope of each lines?

bbb911 · Answer

no  i can't i have two hours to do 15 questions i m trying to speed it up. ill give a medal and a fan

nikato · Answer

sorry. i cant tell you the answer directly. but if you're actually willing to do the problem, i'll be glad to guide you through

bbb911 · Answer

i don't have time thats the thing

nikato · Answer

ok. i'll help you as quickly as i can

nikato · Answer

standard form is Ax +By=C
which is what you're equations are written in

nikato · Answer

and the slope is -A/B

which means 
one has a slope of 2/5
and the other is -2/5

nikato · Answer

and remember parallel lines have the same slope
and perpendicular lines are negative recipricol.

since theyre not the same or negative reciprol,
the two lines are neither
