Question

Which equation represents a line which is parallel to the line 3x-4y=283x−4y=28?

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:in standard form y= ax+b

-4y = -3x+28

4y =3x-28

or y= 3/4 x -7

So a= 3/4 = slope and -7 is y intercept ( parallel lines have same slope)

Equation 3 is

y= 3/4x-2

which also has slope = 3/4 and y intercept = -2

Parallel lines have same slope

Similarly a perpendicular line will have slope of - 1/a

For equation

y= ax+b

Perpendicular line is

y=( -1/a) x +c
