Is the line through points P(3, -5) and Q(1, 4) parallel to the line through points R(-1, 1) and S(3, -3)? Explain.

Given parameters:

Coordinate of line 1 = P(3, -5) and Q(1, 4)

Coordinate of line 2 = R(-1, 1) and S(3, -3)

To know if the two lines are parallel, it must hold that both lines must have the same amount of slope.

Parallel lines are lines that do no intersect at any point.

So we must find the slope of the both lines given.

The formula of the slope of line is:

        Slope  =

For line 1,  P(3, -5) and Q(1, 4) and line 2 R(-1, 1) and S(3, -3)

      x₁ = 3,  y₁ = -5

      x₂ = 1,   y₂ = 4

So;

 Slope of line 1  =   =

For line 2 R(-1, 1) and S(3, -3)

      x₁ = -1,  y₁ = 1

      x₂ = 3,  y₂ = -3

Slope of line 2  =   =   = -1

Since both slopes are different, they are not parallel lines. Parallel lines have the same slope.

step-by-step explanation:

well, you see here, jamal was born to 2 parents, his mother who he lives with and his father who left at a young age and who happens to be younger than him. he stole cookies because he has to steal food due to the fact that he spends his government poverty checks on pot and women.

120 seems like the most sensible answer.

step-by-step explanation:

if there is only one topping on all caramel apples and there's 120 of them. then all apples should/will be covered in sprinkles. make sense?
