The equation of the line is y=2/3x + 0
Explanation: The y intercept (where the line crosses the y axis) is 0, and the slope is 2/3 (up two and 3 to the right)
7.1+m
Or if you needed to add a variable to be the answer it would be 7.1+m=x
<span>Line Segment: A line segment is just part of a line. Remember above when I said that lines are indefinite, and that they keep going and going? Line segments stop somewhere in both directions.</span><span>
Therefore its defined.

Parallel: the lines have = slopes. We thus need 5/6 to equal 2/p. then 5p must equal 12, and p = 12/5. (answer)
Check: Is 5/6 = 2 / (12/5)? YES
Perp.: The lines have slopes that are negative reciprocals of one another.
Then -6/5 = 2/p, or
-6 2
---- = ----
5 p Thus, -6p = 10, and p = -5/3 (answer)
