Answer:

The parallel line has slope \frac{20}{7}

The perpendicular line has slope -\frac{7}{20}

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of a line:

The equation of a line has the following format:

y = mx + b

In which m is the slope.

Parallel lines:

Parallel lines have the same slope.

Perpendicular lines:

If two lines are perpendicular, the multiplication of their slopes is -1.

In this question:

We have the following line:

7y = 20(x-3)

Placing it in the general format

7y = 20x - 60

y = \frac{20x}{7} - \frac{60}{7}

So this line has slope \frac{20}{7}

Parallel line:

Same slope, so the parallel line has slope \frac{20}{7}

Perpendicular line:

Multiplication of the slopes is -1. So

\frac{20m}{7} = -1

20m = -7

m = -\frac{7}{20}

The perpendicular line has slope -\frac{7}{20}
