Answer:

Slope of a parallel line would be 3/4.

The slope of a perpendicular line would be -4/3

Explanation:

Put this equation in the slope intercept form of al line

6x -8y = -7 Subtract 6x from both sides of the equation.

-8y = -6x - 7 Divide all the way through by -8

y =
(-6)/(-8)x - -
(7)/(8) Clean it up

  • y =
    (3)/(4)x +
    (7)/(8) In this equation. The slope is
    (3)/(4) Any equation with a slope of
    (3)/(4) is parallel to this line and any equation that has a slope of
    (-4)/(3) if perpendicular to this line. Perpendicular slopes are the negative reciprocals.
