If a line has the equation $$y = -3x - 2$$ , what is the slope of a line parallel to it?

The slope of a line parallel to $$y = -3x - 2$$ is -3.

What is the equation of a line that is perpendicular to $$y = 3x + 1$$ and passes through the point (2, 3)?

The equation of the line is $$y = -\frac{1}{3}x + \frac{11}{3}$$ .

How do you determine if two lines are perpendicular?

Two lines are perpendicular if the product of their slopes is -1.

What is the slope of the line $$y = -5x + 4$$ ?

The slope of the line $$y = -5x + 4$$ is -5.

Which of the following lines is parallel to $$y = 2x + 3$$ ? Options: $$y = 2x - 1$$ , $$y = -2x + 1$$ , $$y = 3x + 1$$

The line $$y = 2x - 1$$ is parallel to $$y = 2x + 3$$ .

What is the slope of the line $$y = \frac{1}{2}x + 3$$ ?

The slope of the line $$y = \frac{1}{2}x + 3$$ is 1/2.

If a line has the equation $$y = -x + 4$$ , what is the slope of a line perpendicular to it?

The slope of a line perpendicular to $$y = -x + 4$$ is 1.

What is the equation of a line that is parallel to $$y = 4x - 5$$ and passes through the point (1, 2)?

The equation of the line is $$y = 4x - 2$$ .

If two lines have slopes of 2 and -1/2, are they parallel, perpendicular, or neither?

The lines are perpendicular because the product of their slopes is -1.

What is the slope of a line that is perpendicular to $$y = 7x + 1$$ ?

The slope of a line that is perpendicular to $$y = 7x + 1$$ is -1/7.
