Math Problem Statement
Solution
Let's work through the problems step-by-step.
Problems 11-16: Determine if the equations are parallel, perpendicular, or neither.
-
Problem 11:
- Equations: and
- Slopes: -3 and 1/3
- Answer: Perpendicular (because the slopes are negative reciprocals).
-
Problem 12:
- Equations: and
- Slopes: Both are 5/4
- Answer: Parallel (because the slopes are identical).
-
Problem 13:
- Equations: and
- Rewrite in slope-intercept form:
- Slopes: Both are -3/2
- Answer: Parallel (same slopes).
-
Problem 14:
- Equations: and
- Rewrite both in slope-intercept form: and
- Slopes: 4/3 and -3/4
- Answer: Perpendicular (slopes are negative reciprocals).
-
Problem 15:
- Equations: and
- Rewrite both in slope-intercept form: and
- Slopes: 5 and -1/5
- Answer: Perpendicular.
-
Problem 16:
- Equations: and
- Rewrite both in slope-intercept form: and
- Slopes: -5/3 and -3/5
- Answer: Neither (not equal or negative reciprocals).
