Assignment
o Given an equation of a line, find equations for lines parallel or perpendicular to it going through specified points. Find the appropriate equations and points from the table below. Simplify your equations into slope-intercept form.
o Use your assigned number to complete. (My assigned number is 14)
Write the equation of a line parallel to the given line and passing through the given point.
Write the equation of a line perpendicular to the given line and passing through the given point.
The problem is y= 3/4x-1, (3,1)
• Discuss the steps necessary to carry out each activity. Describe briefly what each line looks like in relation to the original given line.
• Answer these two questions briefly in your own words:
o What does it mean for one line to be parallel to another?
o What does it mean for one line to be perpendicular to another?
• Incorporate the following five math vocabulary words into your discussion. Use bold font to emphasize the words in your writing (Do not write definitions for the words; use them appropriately in sentences describing your math work.):
o Origin
o Ordered pair
o X- or y-intercept
o Slope
o Reciprocal
Your initial post should be 150-250 words in length.
