Tell whether the lines for each pair of equations are parallel, perpendicular, or neither.
y = -1/4x + 10
–2x + 8y = 6 (1 point)
A.parallel
B.perpendicular
C.neither

I think the answer is C (neither) am I correct?

@Vocaloid can you help me :(

anonymous · Answer

For both lines, can you tell me what the gradient is please?

danjs · Answer

parallel lines will have th esame rate of change, or slope, or direction

perpendicular lines will have a slope that is negative and inverted

danjs · Answer

slope m

perpendicular -  slope -1/m

danjs · Answer

change the second one to look like the first  y=m*x + b

y = 2/8  x  + 6/8    ---->    y = 1/4  x + 3/4

same slope 1/4 as the first line
