Slope-Intercept Form
y = 4/5x - 8 and 4y = -5x + 12
What are their slopes?
perpendicular
m = 4/5 m = -5/4
y = -2x + 4 and y = -1/2x -2
What are their slopes?
Neither
m = -2 and m = -1/2
9x - 3y = 5 and y = 3x + 3
what are their slopes?
parallel
m = 3
Write the equation for the line (4, 5), (2,9)
What is y = -2x + 13?
y = -4 and x =7
perpendicular
m = 0 and m = undefined
4x - 14y = 15 and -6x + 21y = 0
what are the slopes?
parallel
m = 2/7
y = 3/2x + 7
