Determine whether the lines are parallel, perpendicular, or neither. 9x + 3y = 12
24x + 8y = 35

parallel

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's rewrite each equation into the slope-intercept form so that we can easily identify the slope of each line.

slope-intercept form: y= mx +c, where m is the gradient and c is the y-intercept.

9x +3y= 12

3x +y= 4 (÷3 throughout)

y= -3x +4 -----(1)

24x +8y= 35

8y= -24x +35 (-24x on both sides)

-----(2)

Thus, the slopes of the lines are both -3. Since both lines have the same gradient, they are parallel to each other.

Notes:

• parallel lines have the same gradient

• the product of the gradients of two perpendicular lines is -1

• gradient and slope has the same meaning and can thus be used interchangeably

positive

step-by-step explanation:

the quadrant is facing upwards

the population of other specie of birds will decline or other specie of birds will find some alternate source of food to survive.

explanation:

according to the competitive exclusion principle, which is also known as gause's law, two specie living in the same niche and feeding on the same resource cannot co-exist stably.

as we have well studied the theory of natural selection which states that only those organisms survive which have better tendency to compete for food and adapt to the environmental conditions.

coming towards the question, what wi ll happen when one species outcompetes the other for the small fish , the other specie will not get enough food and will start to die or decline in population. eventually either other specie needs to find another alternative food source for itself or migrate at some other location where there is less competition otherwise it will just not exist anymore at that niche.

hope it !
