Parallel and perpendicular lines 2009-04-08
From Blake:
I need to know what the formula for working a problem. I need to know how to find if i line is parallel or perpendicular by only looking at the equation. i know you must know the slope but how do i find slope?

Parallel and perpendicular lines 2008-09-06
From C:
Can you help me determine whether these lines are parallel, perpendicular or neither and why?

Problem 1: y=3x+2
y=1/3x - 4

Problem 2: y=1/3x + 1/2
y=1/3 x -2

Parallel and perpendicular lines 1999-04-23
From Crystal Pilling:
My name is Crystal Pilling and I am in 9th grade algebra. We are currently studying parallel and perpendicular lines. I am having trouble with this problem: 3/4x - 5y= 16, (5,-6) I have to find a line that is perpindicular to this line on a graph.
HELP ME PLEASE!!!!!
