The equation that you are looking for is y = -2x + 3
For lines to be parallel, the slopes have to be the SAME.
For lines to be perpendicular, the slopes have to be the exact opposite. (opposite sign and number)
For example(perpendicular):
slope is 2
the perpendicular slope is -1/2
slope is -4/5
the perpendicular slope is 5/4
12. line a and b are perpendicular
13. Line a: y = 3/5x + 1
Line b: y = 3/5x - 2/5
Line c: y = 4/6 + 5/3x
line a and b are parallel
14. Line a: y = 3x + 6
Line b: y = 6 - 3x
Line c: y = 2/3x + 6
Neither, none of them are parallel or perpendicular
15. Line a: y = -2/3 + 4/3x
Line b: y = -1/4 - 3/4x
Line c: y = 5 + 3/4x
line a and b are perpendicular
The first picture shows you how to solve it and the second picture is showing you how to get your answer in simplest form.
Divide 20 by 4=5
then 5 by 7=5/7
k=5/7
