43. No; the slope of the line is undefined, the equation is x 5 3, which is not in slope- intercept form.

44. Find the slope by substituting

the values: b 1 m 2 b } 1 2 0 5 m. The

y-intercept is when x 5 0, so the y-intercept is b. If you substitute (21, b 2 m) into the equation y 5 mx 1 b, you get b 2 m 5 2m 1 b which is a true statement.

29. Yes; the slope of the line through (4, 3) and (3, 21) is 4 and the slope of the line through (23, 3)

and (1, 2) is 2 1 } 4 . The slopes are

negative reciprocals, so the lines are perpendicular.

c. The graphs of the lines are parallel because they have the same slope, 200. The w-intercept of the second line is 250 more than the w-intercept of the first line.

34. Parallel: 2nd Street and Park

Street; the slope of both streets

is 2 } 3 . Since they have the same

slope, the streets are parallel. Perpendicular: 2nd Street and Sea

Street, Park Street and Sea Street;

the slope of Sea Street is 2 3 } 2 ,

which is the negative reciprocal

of 2 } 3 , the slope of 2nd Street and

Park Street. Since the slopes are negative reciprocals, the streets are perpendicular.

35. Different registration fees; because the lines are parallel, the rate of change, the monthly fee, for each must be equal. Therefore, the students paid different registration fees.

1. increase

2. When data have a positive correlation, the dependent variable tends to increase as the independent variable increases. When data have a negative correlation, the dependent variable tends to decrease as the independent variable increases. When data have relatively no correlation where there is no apparent relationship between the independent variable and the dependent variable.
