Tell whether the lines are parallel, perpendicular or neither
Line 1:(-1,3), (-1,5)
Line 2: (0, 0), (0, 6)

Line 1 passes through (5, -9) and (0, -5)

We are going to use slope-intercept form of a linear equation.

First we are going to find the slope of the line.

m= -5- (-9)

0-5

m=4/-5

Now substitute in the point to find the y-intercept:

Either point can be used. I am using point (0,-5)

y=-4/5x+b

-5=-4/5(0)+b

-5=b

So, the linear equation is y=-4/5x-5

Line 2 passes through (-3, 8) and (1, 3)

m=3-8

1-(-3)

m=-5/4

Use slope intercept form and substitute in either point

I am using point (1,3)

y=-5/4x+b

3=-5/4(1)+b

3=-5/4+b

3+5/4=b

17/4=b

Therefore, the equation of Line 2 is y= -5/4x+17/4

Line 1: y=-4/5x-5 Line 2: y=-5/4x+17/4
