Answer:

  3x +2y +24 = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

In general, the equation of a perpendicular line can be found by swapping the coefficients of x and y, then negating one of them. The value of the constant will be what is required to make the line pass through the given point.

The equation will be of the form ...

  3x +2y +c = 0

At the given point, (x, y) = (-6, -3), we have ...

  3(-6) +2(-3) +c = 0 . . . . substitute the given point coordinates

  -18 -6 +c = 0 . . .simplify

  c = 24 . . . . . . . . add 24

The general-form equation for the line is ...

  3x +2y +24 = 0 . . . . . shown in blue in the attachment

Find the equation of the line through (10, 4) that is parallel to the line with the equation
lyudmila [28]

Answer:

x + y = 14

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallel lines have the same slope, so the line's slope will be -1.

Plug this slope and the given point into y = mx + b to find b:

y = mx + b

4 = -1(10) + b

4 = -10 + b

14 = b

Then, plug this and the slope into y = mx + b

y = -x + 14

Then, put this into standard form by moving the x to the other side:

x + y = 14 is the equation in standard form
