Tell if slopes are parallel, perpendicular, or neither.
(4.5,3.2) and (-2.5,0.2)

Neither

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete question is

Tell if the slopes are parallel, perpendicular or neither.

Line 1: through (4.5, 3.2) and (-2.5, 0.2).

Line 2: through (3, 3) and (10, 0)

we know that

The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to

Find the slope Line 1

we have the points

(4.5,3.2) and (-2.5,0.2)

substitute in the formula

Find the slope Line 2

we have the points

(3,3) and (10,0)

substitute in the formula

step 3

Compare the slopes

so

1) The slopes are not equal, that means that the lines are not parallel

2) The slopes are not opposite reciprocal, that means that the lines are not perpendicular

therefore

The slopes are neither

the answer is:

the answer is:

to solve the problem, we need to remember the quotient of power property, it's defined by the following relation:

if we have a quotienf of powers that have the same base, we need to keep the same base and subtract the exponent of the denominator power to the exponent of the numerator power.

so, we are given the expression:

then, calculating we have:

hence, the answer is:

have a nice day!
