Convert the two given equations into the \"slope-intercept\" form:
\n" ); document.write( "y = mx + b
\n" ); document.write( "where
\n" ); document.write( "m is the slope
\n" ); document.write( "b is the y-intercept
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "x+y=2
\n" ); document.write( "y = -x + 2
\n" ); document.write( "y = (-1)x + 2
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "y=x+5
\n" ); document.write( "y = (1)x + 5
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Since the slopes are \"negative reciprocals\" the two lines are perpendicular.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
