18. Given that the line that passes through the point, (-6, -1) is parallel to y = -⅔x + 1, therefore, it would have the same slope value as -⅔, as the line it is parallel to.
So, using a point (-6, -1) and slope (m) = -⅔, we can generate the equation of the line in slope-intercept form as follows:
Substitute x = -6, y = -1, and m = -⅔ in y = mx + b, to find b.
-1 = (-⅔)(-6) + b
-1 = 4 + b
-1 - 4 = b
-5 = b
Substitute m = -⅔ and b = -5 in y = mx + b, to generate the equation of the line.
✅y = -⅔x - 5
19. Given that the line that passes through the point, (-2, -11) is perpendicular to y = -¼x + 2, therefore, it would have the a slope value that is the negative reciprocal of the slope of the line that it is perpendicular to.
The slope of the line that it is perpendicular to is -¼. Therefore, the slope of the line that passes through (-2, -11), would be 4. (4 is the negative reciprocal of -¼)
So, using the point (-2, -11) and slope (m) = 4, we can generate the equation of the line in slope-intercept form as follows:
Substitute x = -2, y = -11, and m = 4 in y = mx + b, to find b.
-11 = (4)(-2) + b
-11 = -8 + b
-11 + 8 = b
-3 = b
Substitute m = 4 and b = -3 in y = mx + b, to generate the equation of the line.
✅y = 4x - 3
20. To solve this problem, first find the slope of the line that runs through A(-10, 3) and B(2, 7):

Next, find the coordinates of the midpoint of AB.




Since the slope of AB is ⅓, the slope of line l that is perpendicular to AB would be the negative reciprocal of ⅓.
Therefore, the slope of line l = -3.
Since line l, bisects AB, therefore, the coordinate of the mid-point of AB is also the same as a coordinate point on line l.
So therefore, using the midpoint, (-4, 5) and slope, m = -3, we can generate an equation for line l as follows:
Substitute x = -4, y = 5, and m = -3 into
.


Subtract 12 from both sides


Substitute m = -3 and b = -7 in
to derive the equation:
✅
