Algebra.Com's Answer #195955 by drk(1908)![]() ![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! step 1 - solve the equation for y. we get \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "add 4 to get \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "divide by 5 to get \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "--- \n" ); document.write( "step 2 - determine parallel and perpendicular slopes. \n" ); document.write( "parallel slope = m = (8/5) \n" ); document.write( "perpendicular slope = m = (-5/8) \n" ); document.write( "--- \n" ); document.write( "step 3 - line passing through (1,-2) with slope = m = (8/5) \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "--- \n" ); document.write( "step 4 - line passing through (1,-2) with slope = m = -(5/8) \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
