    linear equations?
    state the slopes of the lines paralelle to and perpendicular to the graph of each direction.
    1. 6x-5y=11

    2.y=2/3x-4/5

    3. 3x=10y-3

    Hi! All the answers got wiped!

    you need to put the equation into the form:

    y = mx + c

    m is the slope of the parallel line

    for perpendicular slope, it is just -1/m

    Enjoy!

    I totally agree and you even included my -1/m that I had written before everything was wiped.
