Answer:

Neither parallel or perpendicular

Explanation:

Parallel lines have the same slope. Perpendicular slopes are the negative reciprocals of each other.

30y +25x = -180 Subtract 25x from both sides

30y + 25x - 25x = -25x - 180

30y = -25x - 180 Divide all the way through by 30


(30y)/(30) =
(-25)/(30) -
(180)/(30)

y =
(-5)/(6) - 6

y =
(-6)/(5) x + 6

Comparing the 2 equations, we have slope of


(-5)/(6) and
(-6)/(5)

These slopes are not the same so they are not parallel.

These slopes are not negative reciprocals. so they are not perpendicular.

Perpendicular slopes would be
(-5)/(6) and
(6)/(5) or
(-6)/(5) and
(5)/(6). One slope would have to be negative and the other slope would have to be positive which they are not.
