1. Write a vector equation for the line: a) with parametric equations x(t) = 2t + 3 y(t) = 7t - 2. What is the slope of this line? b)that passes through (0, 1) and is perpendicular to the line with parametric equations
x(t) = 4t +1 y(t) = 5t +3.
2. Find a unit vector perpendicular to the line with vector equation r (t) = (1+4t) i + (2-5t) j .
3. Are the lines with vector equations r 1(t) = (2t+5) i + (3t-6) j and r 2(s) = (4 - 3s) i + (-6-3s) j parallel, perpendicular or neither? If not parallel, find their intersection point.
