• Two lines are parallel if they have the same slope and will never intersect.

• Two lines are parallel if they intersect at a right angle.

• Two lines are parallel if they have different slopes.

What is the difference between a linear function and a quadratic function?

• A linear function has a degree of 1 and graphs as a straight line, while a quadratic function has a degree of 2 and graphs as a parabola.

• A linear function has a degree of 2 and graphs as a parabola, while a quadratic function has a degree of 1 and graphs as a straight line.

• Both linear and quadratic functions have a degree of 1 and graph as straight lines.

• A linear function can have multiple outputs for a single input, while a quadratic function has only one output for each input.

What is the slope-intercept form of a linear equation?

• y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

• y = ax^2 + bx + c, where a, b, and c are constants.

• y = m(x - b) + b, where m is the slope and b is a point on the line.

• y = mx - b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
