Math Problem Statement
Solution
Let's analyze each question one by one.
Question 21: Parallel Line
To find a line that is parallel, we need to determine the slope of the given line and then identify which option has the same slope.
-
Identify the line in the graph, calculate its slope.
- From the graph, the line passes through two points (for example, (-3, 3) and (3, -3)).
- Slope .
-
Rewrite each option in slope-intercept form :
- Option A: (slope = )
- Option B: (slope = )
- Option C: (slope = )
- Option D: (slope = )
Since none of these slopes match , it appears no correct option is given in this case for parallel.
Question 22: Perpendicular Line
For perpendicularity, we need the negative reciprocal of the original line's slope.
-
Given slope of the line in the graph is .
- The perpendicular slope will be .
-
Check each option for a slope of :
- Option A: (slope = )
- Option B: (slope = )
- Option C: (slope = )
- Option D: (slope = )
No option matches the perpendicular slope either. Thus, both questions seem to lack correct answer choices based on slope requirements.

Additional Questions:
- How do you determine slopes from equations directly?
- Why is the slope important in determining parallel and perpendicular lines?
- What would be the slope for lines that are neither parallel nor perpendicular?
- How can you verify parallelism if you know two points on each line?
- What are typical strategies for quickly converting equations to slope-intercept form?
Tip:
For quick checks on parallel or perpendicular lines, directly compare slopes after converting to slope-intercept form.
