determine if the lines are parallel, perpendicular or neither. State your answer and justify your reasoning.
A) y=4x+3
slope of A is 4
-----------------------
b) y=(-1/3)x+4
slope of B is -1/3
------------
Ans: Since the slopes are not equal the lines are not parallel.
Since (4)(-1/3) is not -1, so the lines are not perpendicular.
-----
Ans: neither
