Question 1153686: The equations of three lines are given below:
Line 1: 4y = 3x + 5
Line 2: y = 3/4x + 8
Line 3: 8x - 6y = -6
For each pair of lines, determine whether they are parallel, perpendicular, or neither.
Line 1 and Line 2.
Line 1 and Line 3.
Line 2 and Line 3.
Let's write all three equations in the form y = ax + b.
Line 1: y = +
Line 2: y = + 8
Line 3: y = + 1.
Now you see that Line 1 and Line 2 have the same slope, but they are not identical; they are different.
Hence, they are parallel.
Line 1 and Line 3 have different slope; hence, they are not parallel.
The slopes {{3/4}}} and are not negative reciprocal. Hence, Line 1 and Line 2 are not perpendicular.
The optional answer is NEITHER.
Line 2 and Line 3 have different slope; hence, they are not parallel.
The slopes {{3/4}}} and are not negative reciprocal. Hence, Line 2 and Line 3 are not perpendicular.
The optional answer is NEITHER.
