a. Equation in slope-intercept form of a line parallel to y = 2/5x +1 will be: y = 2/5x + 5

b. Equation in slope-intercept form of a line perpendicular to y = 2/5x +1 will be: y = -5/2x + 1

c.  Equation in slope-intercept form of a line that is neither parallel nor perpendicular to y = 2/5x +1 will be: y = 3x + 1

Slope-intercept Equation of Parallel and Perpendicular Lines

  • Slope-intercept equation, where b is the y-intercept and b m is the slope is represented as y = mx + b.
  • Equations of parallel lines have the same slope.
  • Equations of perpendicular lines will have slope that are negative reciprocal of each other.
  • If two lines are neither parallel nor perpendicular, their equation will have different slopes, and the slope of one is not the negative reciprocal of each other.

Therefore:

a. Equation in slope-intercept form of a line parallel to y = 2/5x +1 will be: y = 2/5x + 5

b. Equation in slope-intercept form of a line perpendicular to y = 2/5x +1 will be: y = -5/2x + 1

c.  Equation in slope-intercept form of a line that is neither parallel nor perpendicular to y = 2/5x +1 will be: y = 3x + 1
