Answer: Parallel: y=-2/7x-2 1/7 Perpendicular: y=7/2x+13
Step-by-step explanation:
2x+7y=14
Subtract 2x from both sides.
7y=-2x+14
Divide both sides by 7 to isolate y.
y=-2/7x+2
Parallel:
Plug in x and y with same slope as the original.
-1=-2/7(-4)+b
Solve for b:
-1=8/7+b
-2 1/7=b
y=-2/7x-2 1/7
Perpendicular:
Plug in x and y with the negative inverse of the original slope.
-1=7/2(-4)+b
Solve for b.
-1=-28/2+b
-1=-14+b
13=b
y=7/2x+13
