Answer:
1). y = -4/7x 2). y = 7/4x - 65/4
Step-by-step explanation:
1). When a line is parallel, the slope remains the same.
y = -4/7x + b
-4 = -4/7(7) + b
-4 = -4 + b
0 = b
The equation is simply y = -4/7x.
2). When a line is perpendicular, the slope becomes the exact opposite.
y = 7/4x + b
-4 = 7/4(7) + b
-4 = 49/4 + b
-65/4 = b
The equation is y = 7/4x - 65/4.
