Answer:
perpendicular line: y = -¹/₆ x + 4¹/₃
parallel line: y = 6x - 45
Explanation:
y=m₁x+b₁ ⊥ y=m₂x+b₂ ⇔ m₁×m₂ = -1
{Two lines are perpendicular if the product of theirs slopes is equal -1}
y = 6x - 7 ⇒ m₁=6
6×m₂ = -1 ⇒ m₂ = -¹/₆
The line y=-¹/₆ x+b passes through point (8, 3) so the equation:
3 = -¹/₆ ×8 + b must be true
3 = -⁴/₃ + b
b = 4¹/₃
Therefore equation in slope-intercept form:
y = -¹/₆ x + 4¹/₃
y=m₁x+b₁ ║ y=m₂x+b₂ ⇔ m₁ = m₂
{Two lines are parallel if their slopes are equal}
y = 6x - 7 ⇒ m₁=6 ⇒ m₂=6
The line y=6x+b passes through point (8, 3) so the equation:
3 = 6×8 + b must be true
3 = 48 + b
b = -45
Therefore equation in slope-intercept form:
y = 6x - 45
