Question

Choose the equation of the line passing through the point (2, 6) and parallel to y = -3x - 4.

y = 3x - 12

y = -3x

y = -3x + 12

y = 3x

Answer 1

y=-3x + 12

Answer 2

mad smart could u help me with this.....
Choose the equation of the line passing through the point (1, -5) and perpendicular to y = 1/5x - 10.

y = 5x + 10

y = 5x

y = -5x - 10

y = -5x

Answer 3

If m is the slope of a line. then the slope of the line perpendicular to the line will be -1/m.

\[m=\frac{y-y_1}{x-x_1}\]

Is that clear?
