Question 160431: Write an equation of the line containing the given point and parallel to the given line. Write equation in slope-intercept form.
(1,17); x=4 Answer by jim_thompson5910(35256) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Remember, equations of the form are ALWAYS perpendicular to equations of the form . Since the y-coordinate is 17, this means that the equation is the perpendicular line to that goes through (1,17)
Note: the equation in slope intercept form is where the slope is and the y-intercept is which is the point (0,17)
