Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
the equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
y = 3x + 2 is in this form with slope m = 3
• Parallel lines have equal slope
• The slopes of perpendicular lines are negative reciprocals of each other
A
y = - x - 8 has slope m = -
3 and - are negative reciprocals
This line is perpendicular to y = 3x + 2
B
y = 3x - 10 has slope m = 3
This line is parallel to y = 3x + 2
C
y = 2x + 4 has slope m = 2
This line is neither parallel nor perpendicular to y = 3x + 2
Answer:
y = x - 4
Step-by-step explanation:
The line passes through (-1,-5) and (-3,-7)
The slope of a line is given by; change in y ÷ change in x
i.e slope = =
= 1
Taking another point (x,y) on the line.
Slope will be; = 1
Cross multiplying gives; y + 5 = x + 1
Simplifying this equation gives us the equation of our line which is;
y = x - 4
