Write an equation in slope-intercept form for the line that passes through the given point and is parallel to the given line (-7,3); x=4
Solve the line equation for "y", to get it in slope-intercept form. You can immediately read the slope from this equation.Divide -1 by (slope of this first line) to get the slope of the second line - the one perpendicular to the given line. Write an equation for any line with this slope.
If you mean: y = -3x then the slope of the line is -3
If you mean y = 2.3x then the slope of the line is 2.3
To work out the equation of a straight line the slope and an (x, y) coordinate must be given
4
If you mean: y = 3.8x then the slope is 3.8 with no y intercept
If the equation of a line is in the form ax + by + c = 0 then the slope of the line will be -a/b.
If you mean: y = 2x+2 then the slope is 2 and the y intercept is 2
if a line has a slope of -2 and a point on the line has coordinates of (3, -5) write an equation for the line in point slope form
If the slope m is given at a point (xo, yo) of a line, then the equation of the line is given by: y - yo = m(x - xo)
If you mean: y = 3x+3 then the slope is 3 and the y intercept is 3
The slope of the graph of that equation is -1.
Write an equation in slope-intercept form for the line that passes through the given point and is parallel to the given line (-7,3); x=4
Slope = 3
Solve the line equation for "y", to get it in slope-intercept form. You can immediately read the slope from this equation.Divide -1 by (slope of this first line) to get the slope of the second line - the one perpendicular to the given line. Write an equation for any line with this slope.
