opposite
?
same
?

    y = 2x - 8 and goes through the point ( -3, -6),
    in slope intercept form.
y =
x +
8. Write an equation of the line that is perpendicular to
    y = 4 x+ 7 and goes through the point ( 8, 2),
    in slope intercept form.
y =
x +
Note: If you need touse a negative signin the fraction, put itin the numerator.
