Question

line d has a slope of -9/5. line e has a slope of -9/5. are line d and line e parallel or perpendicular? parallel perpendicular neither

Explanation:

Step1: Recall parallel - slope rule

Parallel lines have equal slopes.

Step2: Analyze given slopes

Line d has slope $-\frac{9}{5}$ and line e has slope $-\frac{9}{5}$. Since the slopes are equal, the lines are parallel.

Answer:

parallel
