-3
If: 3x+y = -4 Then: y = -3x-4 and the slope of the line is -3
3x+y = 4 y = -3x+4 Perpendicular slope: 1/3
Slope of given line = -3 Therefore, slope of perpendicular = 1/3
what is a slope
3X + 5Y = 155Y = -3X + 15Y = (-3/5)X + 3The slope of this line is -3/5.The slope of a line perpendicular to it is 5/3.
q2
Get in slope intercept form. 3X + 5Y = 15 5Y = -3X + 15 Y = -3/5X + 3 -3/5 is the slope of this line and the line parallel to this line
y equals 3x has the greater slope.
The slope equals 3
- 1/3
The slope is -3 .
Equation of given line: 3x + y = 15 or y = -3x + 15 Slope of given line = coefficient of x = -3 Slope of perperndicular = -1/(slope of given line) = -1 / (-3) = 1/3
