On a coordinate plane, 2 lines are shown. Line P Q has points (negative 5, 3) and (5, 1). Line R S has points (negative 4, negative 2) and (0, negative 4). Which statement best explains the relationship between lines PQ and RS?
They are parallel because their slopes are equal.
They are parallel because their slopes are negative reciprocals.
They are not parallel because their slopes are not equal.
They are not parallel because their slopes are negative reciprocals.

Given:

Line P Q has points (-5, 3) and (5, 1).

Line R S has points (-4, -2) and (0, -4).

To find:

The relationship between lines PQ and RS.

Solution:

If a line passing through two points, then the slope of line is

Line P Q has points (-5, 3) and (5, 1). So, slope of line PQ is

Line R S has points (-4, -2) and (0, -4). So, slope of line RS is

Slopes of two parallel lines are equal.

They are not parallel because their slopes are not equal.

Therefore, the correct option is C.

step-by-step explanation:

i think something is missing in your question because y-1=(x-12) would not pass through the point (-4,-3). because if you replace x by -4 your are supposed to find y=-3 which is not the case her. if you replace x by -4 you find =-15.

i assume the right equation is y-1=1/4*(x-12) because this one is passing through both your points (if you are interested to know how i found that out i can tell you).

in this equation if i replace x by -4 i find y=-3 and if i replace x by 12, i find y=1 so the line representing this equation is passing through those 2 points.

then the standard form of the equation is finding an expression of y in function of x

y-1=1/4*(x-12)

y=x/4-3+1

y=x/4-2

hope that .

do you confirm there was a mistake in the question?

median is the value separating the higher half of a data sample, a population or probablity distribution from the lower half.

step-by-step explanation:

say you have 3,8,7,3,1,9,8 order them from lowest to highest

if orderd it would be 1,3,3,7,8,8,9 now you take away from the lowest and the highest until you end up in the middle.

so you would remove the 1 and 9 leaving you with 5 digits remaining

when you've reached the middle that would be your answer so in this case the answer is 7

if there were two numbers left say 7 and 5 you'd and them together so 12 then divide by 2 witch would equal 6 so the answer would be 6

good luck on that project hoped i you at all
