You can put this solution on YOUR website! There are actually (4) possibilities when given 2 equations
---------------
(1) They could actually be the SAME line
These are the same line because one is an
exact multiple of the other
---------------
(2) They can be parallel lines
If the slope of DISABLED_event_one= the slope of the other
---------------
(3) Perpendicular lines
If the slope of DISABLED_event_one= the negative reciprocal
of the slope of the other
---------------
(4) Two different lines, neither parallel nor perpendicular
----------------
These need to be put in the slope-intercept form
which is: (m is the slope)
Subtract from both sides
Divide both sides by
Notice that
----------------
Subtract from both sides
Divide both sides by
Notice
If this slope was 5/3, it would be perpendicular
to the other line.
----------------
These two lines are neither the same line, parallel, or
perpendicular. I'll plot them:
