consider the following two lines: Line 1: x=6 Line 2: 5x=-14 The slope of Line 1 is: m= The slope of Line 2 is: m= Finally, which of the following is true? Line 1 is parallel to Line 2
Added by Destiny S.
Step 1
Vertical lines have an undefined slope. Second, for Line 2, we can rearrange the equation to solve for y. The equation becomes y = -14/5x. The slope of this line is -14/5. Show more…
