Solution

Problem 8 :

A bike path is being constructed perpendicular to Washington Boulevard through point P(2, 2). An equation of the line representing Washington Boulevard is

y = −(2/3)x

Find an equation of the line representing the bike path.

Solution

Answer key

1)  y = 5x - 4

2)  y = 4x - 5

3)  y = -2x + 8

4)   y = -x + 4

5)  y = x/4

6)  y = (-1/10)x + 9

7) Since the opposite sides are equal, then the opposite sides are parallel it must be a parallelogram.

8) y = (3/2)x - 1

Write down the equation of each of the following lines.

Problem 1 :

The line N passes through the points (4, 7) and (12, 11)

Bryan says that the lines L and N are parallel.

Is Bryan correct? Explain your answer?

Solution

Answer Key

1) the equation of the line is x + 2y - 23 = 0.

2) the lines are not parallel.

3) the lines are perpendicular.
