Refer to the above diagram. If the red line passes through the point , what is the value of
?
One way to answer this is to first find the equation of the line.
The slope of a line. given two points
can be calculated using the slope formula

Set
:

The line has slope 3 and
-intercept
, so we can substitute
in the slope-intercept form:


Now substitute 4 for
and
for
and solve for
:

Refer to the above red line. A line is drawn perpendicular to that line, and with the same
-intercept. Give the equation of that line in slope-intercept form.

First, we need to find the slope of the above line.
The slope of a line. given two points
can be calculated using the slope formula

Set
:

The slope of a line perpendicular to it has as its slope the opposite of the reciprocal of 2, which would be
. Since we want this line to have the same
-intercept as the first line, which is the point
, we can substitute
and
in the slope-intercept form:
