Question: Determine the values for two variables a, and b where a = the number of letters in your first name and b = your birth

  • Determine the values for two variables a, and b where a = the number of letters in your first name and b = your birth month.
  • Using these values, create two data points: (0,a) and (-a,b).
    • The first will be an equation of the line perpendicular to their original line and passing through your point (0, a).
    • The second will be an equation of the line parallel to their original line and passes through your point (-a, b).
    • Show and explain all of your work.
    • a=5
    • b=3
    • Find the slope, y-intercept, and the x- intercept of your equation and one additional point on the line.
