Gradient is the difference between the y-axis and the x-axis
Gradient = y2-y1/x2-x1
Choose any two point making a triangle
Line B (0,8) (4,0)
This makes a triangle please go look at the graph once again! The the triangle should not have half squares but full!
Line A (5,14)(2,2)
Now plug in the variable
The difference between the Y and X
Line B 0-8/4-0
Line B gradient =-2
Line A 2-14/2-5
Line A gradient = +4

Finalized answer
Line B gradient = -2
Line A gradient = +4

Answer:

The lines blue and green are perpendicular

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

If two lines are perpendicular, then their slopes are opposite reciprocal (the product of their slopes is -1)

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

$m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}$

step 1

Find the slope of the blue line

we have the points

(-1,-3) and (0,3)

substitute

$m=\frac{3+3}{0+1}$

$m=\frac{6}{1}=6$

step 2

Find the slope of the red line

we have the points

(3,-3) and (4,2)

substitute

$m=\frac{2+3}{4-3}$

$m=\frac{5}{1}=5$

step 3

Find the slope of the green line

we have the points

(-4,-1) and (2,-2)

substitute

$m=\frac{-2+1}{2+4}$

$m=-\frac{1}{6}$

step 4

Compare the slopes

Blue line ----> $m=6$

Red line ----. $m=5$

Green line ---> $m=-\frac{1}{6}$

so

The slope of the blue line and the green line are opposite reciprocal ( their product is equal to -1)

therefore

The lines blue and green are perpendicular

Answer: 3 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

1. 1/2 mph for 1/2 an hour as they said, meaning that they would've walked for 3 miles kn an hour.

2. 4 and 1/2 miles.

3 + 1 2/4. = 4 1/2

3. 1 3/4 hours.

3 + 2.25 = 5.25

3 x .75 = 2.25

3 miles per hour.
