Question

For each equation, find the equation that is (a) parallel and (b) perpendicular that passes through the specified point.

1. y = x - 1

Answer 1

Can you help!!?

Answer 2

parallel:
y=x+k
perpendicular:
y=-x+k

Answer 3

here, k is any constant value

Answer 4

What I got so far is y = x - 1 with plot point of (2,0)

the formula my instructor gave me is

Y = mx + b

working from that

I get 0 = -1(2) = b
then 0 = -2 = b

and then 2 = b

which is the perpendicular line but I am having trouble fining the parallel line

If it is the negative recip would it be

-2 = b for the parraellel then?
