Consider the line y= −2/9x-7. Find the equation of the line that is perpendicular to this line and passes through the point , (2, 3) Find the equation of the line that is parallel to this line and passes through the point , (2,3).

keeping in mind that perpendicular lines have negative reciprocal slopes, let's check for the slope of the equation above

so then we can say that

so we're really looking for the equation of a line whos slope is 9/2 and passes through (2 , 3)

now as far as the parallel line

keeping in mind that parallel lines have exactly the same slope, so we're really looking for the equation of a line whose slope is -2/9 and passes through (2 , 3)

dalila is incorrect. the whisker on the left is very long, going all the way out to 5. the whisker goes from 5 to 30, so it has a spread of 25. the rest of the box plot values are closer together, so 5 is an outlier
