Question 1020045: Write an equation of the line that contains the given point and has the given slope.
(-2, -2), slope = -5
A. y = 5x - 12
B. y = -2x -10
C. y = -12x - 5
D. y = -4x - 10
E. y = 4x - 12
F. y = -5 x - 12
Select the equation of the line that passes through the given two points. Note that the correct equation may not be in slope-intercept form (solve for y to get the slope-intercept form).
(-6,8),(10,-56)
A. y = -4 - 16x
B. y = - 16
C. 4x + y = -16
D. 2x + y = 16
E. y = -6 - 8x
F. y = -16 + 4x
State whether the lines are parallel, perpendicular, or neither.
5x + 4y = -60
y = (-4/5)x - (3/5)
A. Vertical
B. Vertigo
C. Vercengeterix
D. Perpendicular
E. Parallel
F. Not Parallel and Not Perpendicular

x + 6y = 196
689 = (6201/230)y + (4823/460)x
A. Vertical
B. Horizontal
C. Horizon
D. Not Parallel and Not Perpendicular
E. Parallel
F. Perpendicular
