Answer:

a) a=-12

b) a=27

Step-by-step explanation:

a) parallel lines have = slopes SO

-3/2 = -3/2

-3/2 = 18/a

-3a/2 = 18

-3a = 18 * 2 = 36

a = -12

b) perpendicular lines have negative inverse slopes SO

- 3/2 ---> 2/3

2/3 = 18/a

2a/3 = 18

2a = 18 * 3 = 54

a = 54/2 = 27

What is an equation of the line that passes through the points (7, 4) and ( -5, 4)?
Sedaia [141]

Answer:

y = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope, you plug the coordinates into the slope formula.

y2 - y1/ x2 - x1

= 4 - 4/ -5 - 7

= 0

The slope is 0.

To find the y-intercept, y = 0x + b

4 = 0(7) + b

4 = 0 + b

4 = b

The equation is y = 4
