Question

Unit 4 mid

Line a is represented by the equation y = 14x + 1 .

How do these equations compare to line a?

Match the equations to the connection statement.

y = 4x - 8

y = -4x - 3y=1/4x+1
1. Parallel to line a 2. Perpendicular to line a 3. Neither parallel nor perpendicular to line a

Answer 1

None of these lines are parallel or perpendicular. I assume you may have mistyped the original equation. If the original equation had a 4 next to the x instead, then the following is true.

The first is parallel
The second is neither
The third is perpendicular.
