Question

State whether the given set of lines are parallel, perpendicular or neither.y=2x+7 y= \frac{-1}{2}x-4 The lines are Answer

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the lines:

y = 2x + 7

and

y = (-1/2)x - 4

These lines are perpendicular as the slope of one (2) is the negative reciprocal of the slope of the other (-1/2).

The product of the slopes of perpendicular lines is always -1

2 * (-1/
