kurayami95 · Answer

my first idea is to convert -2x+8y=5 to a slope intercept form equation

lυἶცἶ0210 · Answer

Start by getting the lines in slope-intercept form $\large y=mx+b $ 

Then look at the slope $\large \color{red}{m} $

yea~ xD that was my idea

anonymous · Answer

ok i do not know how to do that

lυἶცἶ0210 · Answer

If the slopes are identical, then they are parallel. 
If the slopes are negative reciprocals of each other, then they are perpendicular.

anonymous · Answer

so all i have to do is find the slope?

ok thanks bye

lol I'm taking flvs and I just talked to my math teacher and the password for 4.00 was slope xD
