Decide whether the pair of lines is parallel, perpendicular, or neither. Ly: 2x + 3y = 8
L2:3x + 2y = 7
Choose the correct answer below.
A. The lines are neither parallel nor perpendicular.
B. The lines are perpendicular.
C. The lines are parallel.

A

Step-by-step explanation:

We can solve for y for both of the lines' equations to get the point-slope form.

L1:

L2:

So, the slopes of the two lines are and .

Remember that parallel lines have the same slope, and perpendicular lines have opposite and reciprocal slopes. These slopes are reciprocal but not opposite.

Hope this helps!

x = 17

step-by-step explanation:

in the given figure, two triangles are inscribed in a circle where ∠bae ≅ ∠dae which makes the side be and de equal so we can write it as:

3x - 24 = x + 10

solving this equation for x to get:

3x - x = 10 + 24

2x = 34

x = 34/2

x = 17

therefore, the value of x = 17.
