Which statement is an example of a transitive relationship? If x = 2y and 2y = 8, then x = 4. If m ⊥ n and m ⊥ p, then m ∥ p. If ℓ ⊥ m and m ∥ n, then ℓ ⊥ n. If a ∥ b and b ∥ c, then a ∥ c.

Which statement is an example of a transitive relationship? If x = 2y and 2y = 8, then x = 4. If m ⊥ n and m ⊥ p, then m ∥ p. If ℓ ⊥ m and m ∥ n, then ℓ ⊥ n. If a ∥ b and b ∥ c, then a ∥ c.

the answer is if a || b and b || c, then a || c.

Step-by-step explanation:

"If x = 2y and 2y = 8, then x = 4" this is wrong because 4 and 8 don't equal each other, and "If m ⊥ n and m ⊥ p, then m ∥ p. If ℓ ⊥ m and m ∥ n, then ℓ ⊥ n" is wrong because lines that are parallel, cannot intersect. a transitive relationship is when 3 variables are connected and shown as, for example "A = b, and b = c, then A=C
