Question

The lines represented by the equations by - x = 5 and y = { x = 1 are

are they parallel or perpendicular

Answer 1

Parallel

Explanation:

Let the required lines be y-x = 5 and y = x-1

If y-x = 5

y = x + 5

The slope m = 1

For the line y = x - 1

The slope m is also 1

Since the slope of both lines are the same, hence both liens are parallel
