1) Solve the given equation for "y". The resulting equation will be in slope-intercept form, so you can immediately read off its slope. 2) Any line parallel to that line will have the same slope.
Slope of line: 3 Perpendicular slope: -1/3 Equation: y-2 = -1/3(x-0) => y = -1/3x+2
If the equation is: y = -x then the slope is -1 and there is no y intercept
y=2x+1
The equation has no slope. The graph of the equation is a straight line with a slope of -1 .
Write the equation in slope-intercept form of the line that has a slope of 2 and contains the point (1, 1).
If the equation is x+4 the slope is 1. If the equation is 4x than the slope is 4.
The slope of the graph of that equation is -1.

x = 1 (the line intersects the x-axis at 1, and is parallel to the y-axis)We cannot write the equation on the Slope-intercept form, since the slope of the line is undefined. 1 is the x-coordinate of any point on the given line.
-1
We know that the line passes through points (2, 2) and (0, 10) (since the y-intercept is 10).Using these two points, we can find the slope of the line,m = (10 - 2)/(0 - 2) = 8/-2 = 4/-1 = -4.Now by using the slope, m = -4, and the y-intercept, 10, we can write the equation of the line in the slope-intercept form, y = mx + b which isy = -4x + 10.
Assuming that you meant that the equation is y=3x+1, the slope is 3. This is because the equation of any line in the form of y=mx+b has a slope of "m". Therefore, the value of m in this equation is 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.
