Question

Write the equation of the line that is parallel to the line y = 2x + 2 and passes through the point (5, 3). (2 points)
y = 2x – 7
y = −x − 2
y = 2x – 2
y = −x − 7
2. Write the equation of the line that is perpendicular to the line y = 2x + 2 and passes through the point (6, 3). (2 points)
y = 2x + 6
y = −x + 3
y = −x + 6
y = 2x + 3
3. Write the equation of the line that is parallel to the line 4x – 3y = −12 and passes through the point (−3, 4). (2 points)
y = x + 8
y = x + 3
y = −x + 8
y = −x + 3

Answer 1

4. Write the equation of the line that is perpendicular to the line 3x + y = 7 and passes through the point (6, –1). (2 points)
y = x − 3
y = x + 17
y = –3x − 3
y = –3x + 17
5. Explain, in complete sentences, the relationship between the equations of parallel lines. (2 points)

Answer 2

Those too please!!

Answer 3

1. A
2. C (If the slope is -1/2x instead of -x)
3. D
4. A (If the slope is 1/3x instead of x)
5. Perpendicular lines have slopes that are opposite reciprocals of each other (different signs, flipped fractions, i.e. 2/3, -3/2)
