Medal for help Please :)
My answer is Perpendicular

Answer 1

@Asevilla5

Answer 2

What is the sign going to be on x when you move it to the left side?

Answer 3

wait where's the question?

Answer 4

Sorrry this site is crazy today , a lot of glitches

Answer 5

@Asevilla5

Answer 6

The slope of the perpendicular is the negative inverse. So what is the slope of 32x - 48y = -36;

Answer 7

=−3 2

Answer 8

what do u think @Asevilla5

Answer 9

im doing the work and still thinking. im thinking the answer is neither but not sure.

Answer 10

k Ty so much

Answer 11

Answer 12

its perpendicular

Answer 13

solve the second equation for y. Get everything on one side of the equals sign away from just the plain old y. Let's see what that gives us.

Answer 14

OK

Answer 15

That gives us
-28y = -32x - 36, or you can get rid of all those negatives by changing the signs on everything to
28y = 32x + 36. Then dividing by 28 gives you the y alone:
y = 32/28x + 36/28. Now let's do the simplifying:
y = 8/7x + 9/7

Answer 16

First solve for y (so it is just plain no negative sign or coefficient:

32x - 48y = -36

Then the coefficient on x will be the slope.

Iff this is negative inverse of the slope of the other line, then this is perpendicular.

Answer 17

So the slope to the second line is 8/7. What is the rule about a line that is perpendicular to another line when it comes to slope?

Answer 18

your answer of perpendicular is correct, btw. Good!

@Asevilla5 can u please give IMstuck a medal too :)
