Given line t passes through (0,-5) and (-1,3) and liner passes through (-4,3) and (4,2).
Are the lines parallel, perpendicular or neither? Show all work to justify your
response.

Answer:

neither

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope of the first line: (y2 -y1)/(x2-x1) = (3-(-5)/-1 = 8/-1 = -8

Slope of the second line: (2-3)/4-(-4) = -1/8

They are neither parallel nor perpendicular. In fact the two lines have different slope so they can’t be parallel. In addition the product of their slope is not -1, so they can’t be perpendicular,
