Line m contains the points (−3, 2) and (5 , 1). Line n contains the points (2 , 7) and (1, −1) . Which statement is TRUE about lines m and n? A. The lines are parallel.
B. The lines are coincident.
C. Both lines intersect but are neither parallel nor perpendicular.
D. The lines are perpendicular.

  D.  The lines are perpendicular

Step-by-step explanation:

The first line has a rise of (1-2) = -1 for a run of (5-(-3)) = 8.

The second line has a rise of (-1-7) = -8 for a run of (1-2) = -1.

Then the slopes are -1/8 and -8/-1 = 8, which are negative reciprocals of each other. Lines with slopes having that relationship are perpendicular.

$53.50

step-by-step explanation:

you have to subtract the amount of money chuck earned ($72.50) by the cost of the gas for the mower ($11.25) and the new string for the trimmer he bought ($7.75).

72.50-11.25=61.25

and then subtract $61.25 by the second thing he bought (the new string for the trimmer)

61.25-7.75=53.5

so in total it's $53.50 (53 dollars and 50 cents)
