determine if the given equations are parallel, perpendicular, or neither
4y=3x-4 and 4x+3y=-6


Sagot :

Answer:

Perpindicular

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve each equation for y, or point Slope form.

y = mx + b

4y = 3x - 4 divide both sides by 4 to isolate the y.

y = 3/4x - 1

The second equation.

4x + 3y = - 6 subtract 4x from both sides

3y = -4x - 6 divide both sides by 3

y = -4/3 - 2

If you visualize line 1 having a Slope of 3/4, that is, for every 4 we move in the positive x direction, y will increase by 3, it slopes up from left to right crossing the y axis at (0,-1). The second line moves 3 in the positive x direction and decreases in y by 4, it slopes down from left to right crossing the y axis at (0,-2}.

Because the two lines have negative inverse slopes they are perpendicular. 3/4x and - 4/3x
