Algebra.Com's Answer #66605 by scott8148(6628)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! all these equations are in the slope-intercept form (y=mx+b), where m is the slope of the line and b is the y-intercept\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "two lines are perpendicular if their slopes are negative reciprocals of each other ... in this case, 9 and -1/9\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "so b and d are the equations \n" ); document.write( " |
