Question

7. Try It #7

Look at the graph in Figure 22 and identify the following for the function j(t) :
d. Is j(t) parallel or perpendicular to h(t) (or neither)?

Answer 1

The given lines are un-related.

Explanation:

In the question two functions are given as h(t)=3t-4 and j(t)=5-t.

It is required to find whether these lines are perpendicular, parallel or neither.

Step 1 of 1

Find the slope of two lines by comparing these to the standard form.

y=mx+b

Then,
`$m_(1)`=3

And
`$m_(2)`=-1

Since, both slopes are neither equal nor reciprocal of each other.

Therefore, the lines are un-related.
