The slope formulaThe slope formula

m = y1 – y2

x1 – x2

This is really the same at the point-slope equation

m(x1 – x2) = y1 – y2

y1 – y2 = m(x1 – x2)

Find the slope given 2 points (-Find the slope given 2 points (-1,1); (2,3)1,1); (2,3)

m = 3 – 1 2 – -1m = 2 3

m = 1 – 3 -1 – 2m = -2 = 2 -3 3

Now write the equation (-1,1); Now write the equation (-1,1); (2,3)(2,3)

m = 3 – 1 2 – -1

m = 2 3

y1 – y2 = m(x1 – x2)y – 3 = 2/3 (x – 2)y = 2/3 x – 4/3 + 9/3y = 2/3 x + 5/3

Given 3x + 4y = 12Given 3x + 4y = 12Find the line || to

the given line that passes through (-2, 5).

Find the line _|_ to the given line that passes through (-2, 5).

Given 3x + 4y = 12Given 3x + 4y = 12Find the line || to

the given line that passes through (-2, 5).

Find the line _|_ to the given line that passes through (-2, 5).

If the line is parallel then the slope must be the same so the linear

equation will look like 3x + 4y =

If the line is perpendicular then the slope must be the opposite

reciprocal so the linear equation will look like -4x + 3y =

Given 3x + 4y = 12Given 3x + 4y = 12Find the line || to

the given line that passes through (-2, 5).

3x + 4y = ___3(-2) + 4(5) = ___-6 + 20 = 14

Find the line _|_ to the given line that passes through (-2, 5).

-4x + 3y = ___-4(-2)+3(5) = ___8+15 = 23

3x + 4y = 143x + 4y = 14 -4x + 3y = 23-4x + 3y = 23

Slope = 2 thereforem|| = 2

Find the line _|_ to the given line that passes through (-2, 5).

Slope = 2 thereforem_|_ = -1/2

y = 2x + by = 2x + b y = -1/2 x + by = -1/2 x + b

Given y = 2x - 12Given y = 2x - 12Find the line || to

the given line that passes through (-2, 5).

Find the line _|_ to the given line that passes through (-2, 5).

y = 2x + by = 2x + b5 = 2(-2) + b5 = 2(-2) + bb = 9b = 9

y = -1/2 x + by = -1/2 x + b5 = -1/2 (-2) + 5 = -1/2 (-2) + bbb = 4b = 4

y = -1/2 x + 4y = -1/2 x + 4y = 2x + 9y = 2x + 9

The alternative calculation is The alternative calculation is to using the point slope form to using the point slope form of a linear equation y – yof a linear equation y – y11 = = m(x – xm(x – x11))Once you identify

the desired slope, you have m

then you can substitute the point value for (x1,y1)
