Determine whether the graphs of y = 3 x - 7 and y = $ \frac{6}{7} $ x - 2 of are parallel, perpendicular, or neither.
A)parallel
B)neither parallel, nor perpendicular
C)perpedicular

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Two lines are parallel if their slopes are equal, and perpendicular if their slopes are negative reciprocals of each other. Comparing the two given equations, we see that one slope is 3 and the other is 6/7. These slopes are not equal, nor are they negative reciprocals of each other, so the lines are neither parallel nor perpendicular.
