What type of lines are these y equals 2x plus 4 and 12 equals 2y plus x?
If: 12 = 2y+x then y = -1/2x+6 So: y = 2x+4 and y = -1/2x+6 which means that they are perpendicular lines
What type of lines are these 3x - 2y equals -2 and 6x - 4y equals 0?
They are parallel straight lines,
What type of lines are these x plus 2y equals 7 and 2x plus 4y equals 21?
They are parallel lines.
What type of lines are these y 2x 4 and x 2y 12?
Unfortunately, limitations of the browser used by WA means that we cannot see most symbols. It is therefore impossible to give a proper answer to your question. Please resubmit your question spelling out the symbols as "plus", "minus", "equals" etc. They cannot be parallel and so, since the question has been asked, as is clearly part of your homework, it must have an answer other than "random lines". So then, if you assume that the lines are y = 2x + 4 and x + 2y = 12 they are mutually perpendicular.
What is the slope of 3x-2y equals 12?
rearrange into standard form: first add 2y to each side:3x -2y + 2y = 12 + 2y --> 3x = 12 + 2yThen subtract 12 from each side: 3x - 12 = 12 + 2y - 12 ---> 3x - 12 = 2ynext divide both sides by 2: (3/2)x - (12/2) = (2/2)y(3/2)x - 6 = yso y = (3/2)x -6in y = mx + b, with m as slope and b as y-intercept, so slope(m) is 3/2 = 1.5also the line intersects the y-axis at y = -6
