Answer:

The equation of this line is y = -3x + 29

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find this, start with the basic form of point-slope form.

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

Now put the slope in for m and the point in for (x1, y1)

y - 8 = -3(x - 7)

Now solve the equation for y.

y - 8 = -3x + 21

y = -3x + 29

What is the equation of a line perpendicular to y=14x−3 and passes through the point (−2, 4)?
Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:

they answer would be y = 3x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Convert the equation to slope intercept form to get y = –1/3x + 2.  The old slope is –1/3 and the new slope is 3.  Perpendicular slopes must be opposite reciprocals of each other:  m1 * m2 = –1

With the new slope, use the slope intercept form and the point to calculate the intercept: y = mx + b or 5 = 3(1) + b, so b = 2

So y = 3x + 2
