Question

Write an equation in slope-intercept form for the line that satisfies the following condition. passes through (10, 14), parallel to the line that passes through (2, 6) and (23, 15)

Answer 1

First off need to plot the equation on the graph..

After doing this you determine that the slope of the line it is perpendicular to is 3/7 and it has a y-intercept of 36/7.

Slope intercept is y= mx+b

"m" being the slope and "b" being your y-intercept.

Well..

This isn't your final answer..

All you have to do is reverse the slope by making it negative to make it perpendicular to the line.

So..

Final Answer is: y= -3/7x+36/7 or y= -3/7x+5.142 (rounded to the nearest thousandth).
