Question 583792: Give the slope of each line AND then determine whether the two lines are parallel, perpendicular, or neither.
5x+4y=12
20x+16y=0 Answer by dfrazzetto(283) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! 5x+4y=12
20x+16y=0
Write both equations in slope-intercept form:
y = (-5/4)x - 3
y = (-20/16)x + 0 = (-5/4)x
y = mx + b
slope, m, is -5/4 for both, so they are parallel
