Answer:
1.) y = -3/4x +2
2.) y = x - 4
3.) y = 2/3x - 4
4.) y = -1/2x + 5
5.) y = 8/3x +5
Explanation:
1.)
Parallel means that the slopes will be the same.
So, m = -3/4
To find the equation, we must first use point-slope form.
y-(-1) = -3/4(x-4)
Now we clean this up and solve for y to get the answer in slope intercept form.
y+1= -3/4x + 3 => y = -3/4x +2
2.)
Perpendicular means that the slope is the negative reciprocal of the slope of the first line.
So, m = 1 as the negative reciprocal of -1 is +1.
Once again, we use point-slope form and the clean it up and solve for y to get the answer in slope-intercept form.
y - (-3) = 1(x-1) => y + 3 = x-1 => y = x - 4
3.)
Similar to the previous one, but with slope m = 2/3 (negative reciprocal)
y - (-4) = 2/3 (x - 0) => y + 4 = 2/3x => y = 2/3x - 4
4.)
Similar to the previous one, but with slope m = -1/2 (negative reciprocal)
y - 4 = -1/2(x-2) => y - 4 = -1/2x +1 => y = -1/2x + 5
5.)
Similar to the previous one, but with slope m = 8/3 (negative reciprocal)
y - (-3) = 8/3(x - (-3)) => y + 3 = 8/3x +8 => y = 8/3x +5
