Question

Help me pls!! Ill so grateful!! TYSM!

Answer 1

Hey there!

We want to change the equation for each line into slope intercept form, or y=mx+b form.

Luckily, the first one is already in slope intercept form.

The second line can be converted to: y=-3/4x-7/4.

The third line can be converted to: -8y=-6x+4, or y=3/4x-1/2

Line one and line two are neither perpendicular or parallel.

Line one and line three are perpendicular.

Lines two and three are neither perpendicular or parallel.

This is because parallel lines have same slope, and perpendicular lines have opposite reciprocal slopes.

Hope this helps :)

Answer 2

Line 1 and Line 2: Neither

Line 1 and Line 3: Perpendicular

Line 2 and Line 3: Neither

Explanation:

To make the answering process easier, begin by converting each formula into the format y = mx +b:

Line 1: y = -4/3x + 1 (already in format)

Line 2:

-4y = 3x + 7

Divide all terms by -4:

y = -3/4x - 7/4

Line 3:

6x - 8y = 4

Subtract both sides by 6x:

-8y = -6x + 4

Divide all terms by -8:

y = 3/4x - 1/2

We can determine the relationships of the lines:

Line 1 and Line 2: Neither. They do not have the same slope, and they are not opposite reciprocals of each other.

Line 1 and Line 3: Perpendicular. The slopes of each line are opposite reciprocals: (-4/3 and 3/4)

Line 2 and Line 3: Neither. The slopes are the same but one is negative.
