Select the equations that are parallel and perpendicular to y = x + 7 and that pass through the point (-8, 9). parallel: y =1/4 x - 11 perpendicular: y = -4x + 23 parallel: y = -4x + 11 perpendicular: y = 1/4x - 4 parallel: y = 4x - 7 perpendicular: y =-1/4 x - 7 parallel: y =1/4 x + 11 perpendicular: y = -4x - 23 i got D @jim_thompson5910

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

is the slope in the original equation 1 or 4? or something else?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

something didn't copy right

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oops yes it is sorry ): @jim_thompson5910

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

which one?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

4? 1? or something else?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

1/4 Is the original slope

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

so the original equation is actually \[\large y = \frac{1}{4}x + 7\] right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes thats right

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

thanks, so that would mean that D is definitely correct

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thank you can you help me with one more problem please?
