How do these equations compare to line a?

Answer 1

@JustSaiyan can you help me

Answer 2

Not in Mathematics, sorry.

Answer 4

Parallel lines have the same slope.
Perpendicular lines have a slope that is the opposite reciprocal. So if the slope is 2/3, then a line perpendicular to it would have a slope of -3/2

A line that is neither parallel or perpendicular has a slope that's not the same or the opposite reciprocal.

Answer 5

-3/2 is not an answer

Answer 6

I gave you an example.

Answer 7

y = mx + b

m is the slope
b is the y-intercept

parallel lines will have the same slope, but different y-intercepts
perpendicular lines will have the opposite reciprocal slope. Opposite means you flip the sign and reciprocal means you flip the fraction.

If two lines are perpendicular, if you multiply their slopes, you'll get -1.

Answer 8

Thank you

Answer 9

No

Answer 10

Parallel line should have the SAME slope

Answer 11

y=3x-2

Answer 12

Bingo!

Answer 13

Thank you so much @Tranquility

Answer 14

Of course, no problem!
