Algebra.Com's Answer #90724 by nadinadan(32)![]() ![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! If two line segments are parallel, their slopes are the same. \n" ); document.write( "If two line segments are perpendicular, their slopes are negative reciprocals.\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "y=2x-5 and y=2x+5 \n" ); document.write( "These 2 equations have the ssame slope 2 and 2 so these are parallel lines.\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "3x+y=5 write it in the y=mx+b form y=-3x+5 \n" ); document.write( "-x+3y=6 We need to write this in the form of y = mx+b so y= 1/3 x +2 \n" ); document.write( "These graphs have the slope -3 and the other is 1/3 so these are perpendicular.\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "3x+y=5 y=-3x+5 \n" ); document.write( "x+y=3 y=-x+3 \n" ); document.write( "These are not parallel nor perpendicular. \n" ); document.write( " |
