Consider the line y = 7x-3. What is the slope of a line parallel to this line?
What is the slope of a line perpendicular to this line?

Gradient of parallel line= 7

Gradient of perpendicular line

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the line is already in slope-intercept form (y= mx +c). This means that the coefficient of x is the gradient and the constant -3 is the y-intercept of the line.

y= 7x -3

Gradient= 7

Parallel lines have the same gradient.

Thus, the slope of the line parallel to this line is also 7.

The product of the gradients of 2 perpendicular lines is -1.

(Gradient of perpendicular line)(7)= -1

Gradient of perpendicular line

= -1 ÷7

rick has $1400 and sally has $1500

step-by-step explanation:

to find amount of money rick has after 10 years :

principal = $1000 , time = 10 years , rate = 4% annually

to find amount of money sally has after 10 years :

her friend gives to pay her $50 per year, therefore money she has after 10 years = 50 × 10 = $500

also, sally gets $1000 after 10 years,

therefore, total amount of money sally has after 10 years = 500 + 1000 = $1500

so, after 10 years : rick has $1400 and sally has $1500
