Select the equations that are parallel and perpendicular to y = -3x - 1 and that pass through the point (3, 1). parallel: y = -3x + 6 perpendicular: y = one over threex + two and two thirds parallel: y = -3x + 10 perpendicular: y = one over threex parallel: y = negative one over threex perpendicular: y = -3x parallel: y = one over threex + 1 perpendicular: y = 3x - 1

anyone

OpenStudy (anonymous):

use the point slope formula

OpenStudy (anonymous):

all that changes in each formula is the slope when the slope is parralell then the slope stays the same if perpendicular flip and change the sign

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I did I think its c

OpenStudy (anonymous):

nope are you guessing?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no I thought it was eather c or a

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay lets start with solving for the parallel line whats your slope?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I have no clue

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay so your original equation (the equation we are working with )is what?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

y = -3x - 1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so for the parallel equation are our slopes the same or different?
