Is 2x equals y plus 8 a parallel line or a perpendicular line?

One single line is never parallel or perpendicular. Those words tell you somethingabout the relationship between two lines.


Is y equals 2x plus 4 and x plus 2y equals 12 a perpendicular or parallel line?

The second equation works out as y = -1/2x+6 therefore it is perpendicular


Is y equals 5x plus 3 parallel or perpindicular?

Neither: because one line, by itself, can be neither parallel or perpendicular. These characteristics are relevant only in the context of another line (or lines). The given line is parallel to some lines and perpendicular to others.


Is x plus 2y equal 7 and 2x plus 4y equals 3 perpendicular?

No. They are parallel.


Find the slope of the line perpendicular to the line y equals 2x plus 1?

The slope of the perpendicular is -(1/2) .


2x plus y equals 2 2x plus y equals 5 is it perpendicular parallel or neither?

They are both parallel because the slope or gradient is the same but the y intercept is different.


Is the line 3x plus 3y equals 5 perpendicular to y equals -5 over 3x plus 3 over 5?

No, the two lines are not perpendicular.


What is the slope of a line perpendicular to x plus 10y equals 50?

10 is.


What is the slope of a line perpendicular to the line 3x plus y equals 7?

Slope of given line = -3 Therefore, slope of perpendicular = 1/3


When graphed are the lines y equals 8x plus 4 and y equals 8x parallel perpendicular or neither?

The slope of both lines is 8. So they're parallel.


Are 3x-4y equals -5 and 8x plus 6y equals -5 parallel or perpendicular lines?

They are perpendicular lines because the slopes are 3/4 and -4/3 respectively.


What equation is parallel to y-2x equals 5?

[ y = 2x plus or minus any number ] is parallel to it. [ y = -0.5x plus or minus any number ] is perpendicular to it.
