solve for y.
\n" ); document.write( "\"8x%2B3y=1\"
\n" ); document.write( "subtract 8x to get
\n" ); document.write( "\"3y+=+-8y+%2B+1\"
\n" ); document.write( "divide by 3 to get
\n" ); document.write( "\"y+=+%28-8%2F3%29y+%2B+%281%2F3%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "So parallel slope = (-8/3)
\n" ); document.write( "so perpendicular = (3/8)
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
