Question

Given the function y=-3x + 7, identify a parallel and perpendicular function.

Answer 1

Answer:

Parallel line: y=-3x

Perpendicular line: y=1/3x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

A parallel line will ALWAYS have the same slope as the given equation, that´s one of the rule.

A perpendicular line will always be the negative reciprocal of the slope in the given equation, so change the sign and flip the numbers around.

The y-intercepts don´t matter, so you can make those up!

You can check all of the equations on Desmos, and you can see it!

I hope this helps!
