Question 1019000: Write a slope intercept equation for a line passing through the given point that is parallel to the given line. Write equation for a line passing through the given point that is perpendicular to the given line.
(1,-3); 3x+5y=6
I've been working this question for a few hours & can't seem to figure out the parallel & perpendicular lines. Please help!

Change to slope intercept form.

Parallel lines have identical slopes,

Using the point slope form,

Perpendicular lines have slopes that are negative reciprocals,

So then,
