Answer:

y = -1/5 x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 5x - 4

m = 5

Slope of perpendicular = -1/5

Equation of perpendicular:

y = mx + b

y = -1/5 x + b

Use point (15, -1) for x and y, and solve for b.

-1 = -1/5(15) + b

-1 = -3 + b

b = 2

Equation of perpendicular:

y = -1/5 x + 2

Kruka [31]

Answer:

y = -x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Lines that are parallel have the same slope but different

y-intercepts.

So the slope of the parallel line is -x

We can input the x and y points given to solve for the new y-intercept

  • y = -x + b
  • 8 = -(-6) + b
  • 8 = 6 + b
  • b = 2

The new line is y = -x + 2. Since these two lines are the same, they are coinciding lines.
