What is the equation of the line that is perpendicular to the given line and has an x-intercept of -3?
Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

y=-\frac{3}{2}x-\frac{9}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the equation of the perpendicular line is,

y = mx + b

where m = slope of the line

b = y-intercept

From the graph, slope of the line passing through (0, -1) and (3, 1),

m' = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

m' = \frac{1+1}{3-0}

m' = \frac{2}{3}

To get the slope (m) of this line we will use the property of perpendicular lines,

m × m' = (-1)

m × \frac{2}{3} = -1

m = -\frac{3}{2}

Equation of the perpendicular line will be,

y=-\frac{3}{2}x+b

x-intercept of the line is (-3) therefore, point on the line is (-3, 0)

0 = -\frac{3}{2}(-3)+b

b = -\frac{9}{2}=-4.5

Equation of the line will be,

y=-\frac{3}{2}x-\frac{9}{2}
