consider the line y=3/2x-4
Find the equation of the line that is parallel to this line and passes through the point (3,6)?
-----
The given line has slope = 3/2
-----
Any line parallel to it must have slope = 3/2
-----
Form: y = mx + b
Solve for "b":
6 = (3/2)3 +b
12/2 - (9/2) = b
b = 3/2
----
Equation:
y = (3/2)x + (3/2)
===========================
Find the equation of the line that is perpendicular to this line and passes through the point (3,6)?
Any line perpendicular to the given line must have slope = -2/3
----
Form: y = mx+b
Solve for "b":
6 = (-2/3)3 + b
b = 6 +2
b = 8
----
Equation:
y = (-2/3)x + 8

given y = 3x/2 -4
1) parallel lines have the same slope, therefore a line parallel to the given line and passes through the point (3,6) is
6 = (3/2)*3 +c
12/2 = 9/2 +c
c = 3/2
y = 3x/2 +3/2
here is the graph of the parallel lines
2) the product of the slopes of two perpendicular lines is negative one, therefore
3/2 * m = -1 and m is -2/3, consider that this new line passes through point (3,6)
6 = (-2/3)*3 +c
c = 8
y = -2x/3 +8
here is the graph of the perpendicular lines
