Question

1. Write a linear equation with the given information

Answer 1

1) The equation of the parallel line in Slope Intercept Form is; y = -x - 1

2) The equation of the perpendicular line in Slope Intercept Form is;

y = ³/₂x - 4

How to write equation in Slope Intercept Form?

1) When two lines are parallel, it means their slopes are the same.

Formula for equation in slope intercept form is;

y = mx + c

where;

m is slope

c is y-intercept

Thus, slope of y = -x + 1 is m = -1.

Equation of parallel line is;

(y - (-5))/(x - 4) = -1

y + 5 = -x + 4

y = -x - 1

2) When two lines are perpendicular, it means their slopes are the negative inverse of each other. Thus;

Slope of line = -2/3 and so slope of perpendicular line = 3/2. Thus, equation of new line is;

(y + 1)/(x - 2) = 3/2

2y + 2 = 3x - 6

2y = 3x - 8

y = ³/₂x - 4
