Introduction of Algrebra, writing homework help

  • 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.
  • Use your assigned number to complete. 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

My assigned number: y = -4x – 5; (0, -1) y = -4x – 5; (0, -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:
    • What does it mean for one line to be parallel to another?
    • 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.):

      • Origin
      • Ordered pair
      • X- or y-intercept
      • Slope
      • Reciprocal

    Your initial post should be 150-250 words in length
