Errors in this video:
At 8:20 of the video, there is an error: line #3 should be y = -3/2x - 6 because you need to find the opposite reciprocal.
Lesson Description:
Covers writing equations of lines parallel or perpendicular to a given line if you know a point on the line. This is part 24 of a series of videos about graphing lines.

Staff Review
This video takes the ideas we learned from the previous lesson and uses these skills to find equations of line parallel or perpendicular to other equations of lines that pass through a given point. Make sure you are confident in your ability to write equations for lines before watching this video.
