Answer:

Question 1 f(x) = -2x + 1

Question 2 The slope are perpendicular

Question 3 y = -1/3x + 2

Explanation:

Question 1:

Your slope is the change in y over your change in x. Looking at the table, as your y decreased by 2, you x increased by 1 or-2/1 which is the same as -2. Your y intercept is the point (0,b). This is when x is o. In the table, this would be point (0,1)

Questions 2

Put the second equation in the slope-intercept form of a line.

5y = x + 15 Divide both sides of the equation by 5

y = 1/5x + 3 Perpendicular slopes are opposite reciprocals of each other.

Question 3

I will use the slope (3), the x(3) and the y(1) to write the equation

The perpendicular slope would be -1/3

y = mx + b Plug is what I know and solve for b

1 = (-1/3)(3) + b

1 = -1 + b Add 1 to both sides

2 = b

y = -1/3x + 2
