|dw:1515008128840:dw| we follow a similar line of logic as the other one, just with an extra step first find the slope of y = (x/4) + 5 then: *** take the opposite reciprocal of that *** this means swap the numerator and denominator, then put a negative sign in front

Comerpickles:

I don't follow. I understand the last sentence though

Vocaloid:

for y = mx + b, the slope is m so for y = (x/4) + 5 what is the slope? as a hint you can re-write (x/4) as (1/4)*x

Comerpickles:

21/4

Vocaloid:

|dw:1515008611243:dw|

Vocaloid:

since the slope of the original line is (1/4) we find the opposite reciprocal of (1/4) which ends up being -4

Vocaloid:

now, we can simply use y = mx + b to find the correct equation of the line w/ slope (-4) and passing through (2,7) y = mx + b 7 = (-4)(2) + b solve for b.

Comerpickles:

Write it out like this? http://prntscr.com/hvo1lp

Vocaloid:

yes

Comerpickles:

B=15?

Vocaloid:

good so y = -4x + 15 = your answer

Comerpickles:

Okie thanks

Vocaloid:

|dw:1515008861252:dw|

Vocaloid:

for this one you must also include the value of b which we solved to be -9 so y = (2/3)x - 9 = your ans

Comerpickles:

Oh, thanks

Vocaloid:

the third one (the one asking about parallel/perp/neither) is correct

Comerpickles:

Okie
