Sorry if I am wrong I am not 100% sure but I think it’s 3
Slope = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
(-9,6)....x1 = -9 and y1 = 6
(-3,9)...x2 = -3 and y2 = 9
now we sub and solve
slope = (9 - 6) / (-3 - (-9) = 3 / (-3 + 9) = 3/6 = 1/2 <=
Answer:
Parallel: y=-4x-1
Perpendicular: y=-4x+13/2
Step-by-step explanation:
For the equation y=-4x-41, the slope is -4. Writing a line related to this equation has two options:
- If the line will be parallel to it then this is the slope of the new line as well. Use the point-slope form to write the equation, then simplify and convert into the slope intercept form.
(y-7)=-4(x--2)
y-7=-4x-8
y=-4x-1
- If the line will be perpendicular to it then the slope is the negative reciprocal of the previous slope. It is 1/4.
(y-7)=1/4(x--2)
y-7=1/4x-1/2
y=-4x+13/2
One way to carry out this problem is to simply take the value that you already know, which is that 1/5 is 20 % and multiply it by 2 for 2/5 or 2 (1/5ths) and do this for all of them. There is a pattern that occurs for every increase in one out of denominator of 5.
