Question

Identify the relationship between the graphs of

these two equations.
5y = 6x +1 6y = -5x – 4
Click on the correct answer.
parallel
perpendicular
neither

Answer 1

perpendicular

Explanation:

Convert into y = mx + b form

5y = 6x + 1

y = 6/5x + 1/5

6y = -5x - 4

y = -5/6x - 2/3

Since the y int are different, and the slopes are perpendicular (neg reciprocal), the 2 lines are perpendicular
