SOLUTION: Find the equation of the line passing through the point open parentheses minus 3 comma 5 close parentheses and parallel to the line with equation y equal minus 2 x plus 4

Question 989051: Find the equation of the line passing through the point open parentheses minus 3 comma 5 close parentheses and
parallel to the line with equation y equal minus 2 x plus 4 .
perpendicular to the line with equation minus 2 x plus y equal 0 .

y=2x-4 ; slope is 2
point slope formula for slope 2 and (3,5) point
y-5=2(x-3), y-y1=m(x-x1)
y-5=2x-6
y=2x-1
;;;
perpendicular to the line 2x+y=0; y=-2x
slope of the line is -2
perpendicular line has slope +1/2, the negative reciprocal of -2.
y-5= (1/2)(x-3)
y-5=(1/2)x-(3/2)
y=(1/2)x+3.5
