What makes 2 equations perpendicular?
Technically, equations are never perpendicular to one another. However, the equations of lines can result in their lines being perpendicular. Using y=mx+b, to have a perpendicular line, you have the negative reciprocal of m.
How can we tell if two lines are parallel perpendicular or neither just from their equations?
If the slope of the equations are the same then they are parallel If the slope of the equations are minus reciprocal then they are perpendicular If the slope of the equations are different then they are neither
Are the lines With the equations y2 x-1 and y-2x 1 perpendicular?
Without any equality signs the given terms can't be considered to be equations.
The lines given by the equations y equals 2x and y equals 0.5x are?
Neither perpendicular nor parallel
Are the lines represented by the equations in the video parallel perpendicular or neither?
I'll get back to you as soon as I've seen the video.

Are perpendicular lines considered nonlinear?
No, two lines perpendicular to each other are wriiten as two separate equations. Both are linear.
What is it called when you solve for two lines of algebraic equations simultaneousley?
Its called Simultaneous Equations
When 2 lines have slopes that are negative reciprocals of one another the graph of the equations are?
of mutually perpendicular lines.
If a system of linear equations has exactly one solution then the two lines are what?
perpendicular
How do you solve parallel equations?
Parallel lines never meet and so parallel equations do not have any simultaneous solution.
How do you determine if they are parallel perpendicular or neither?
That depends on the specific situation. You may want to measure angles (perpendicular lines are at a right angle, i.e., 90°). If you have equations for line, write them in the slope-intercept form. Parallel lines have the same slope. If lines are perpendicular, the product of their slopes is -1.

Y equals 5-2x and 2y plus x equals 1 are the lines perpendicular?
Solve both equations for y in terms of x: y = (-2)x+5 y = (-1/2)x+1/2 Multiply the slopes together: (-2) X (-1/2) = 1 In order for the lines to be perpendicular, the product of the slopes would have had to equal -1, but it equals 1, so they're not perpendicular.
