You would subtract 3 from 0 and then the 3's would cancel out and it would be X=3

Where an, an-1,a2, a1, a0 are constants. We call the term containing the highest power of x the leading term, and we call an the leading coefficient. The degree of the polynomial is the power of x in the leading term. We have already seen degree 0, 1, and 2 polynomials which were the constant, linear, and quadratic functions, respectively. Degree 3, 4, and 5

What is the equation of the line that is perpendicular to y= -3x + 1 and passes through (2,3)?

Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer:

$\large\boxed{y=\dfrac{1}{3}x+2\dfrac{1}{3}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\text{Let}\ k:y=_1x+b_1\ \text{and}\ l:y=m_2x+b_2.\\\\l\ \perp\ k\iff m_1m_2=-1\to m_2=-\dfrac{1}{m_1}\\============================\\\\\text{We have}\ y=-3x+1\to m_1=-3.\\\\\text{Therefore}\ m_2=-\dfrac{1}{-3}=\dfrac{1}{3}.\\\\\text{The equation of the searched line:}\ y=\dfrac{1}{3}x+b.\\\\\text{The line passes through }(2,\ 3).$

$\text{Put the coordinates of the point to the equation.}\ x=2,\ y=3:\\\\3=\dfrac{1}{3}(2)+b\\\\3=\dfrac{2}{3}+b\qquad\text{subtract}\ \dfrac{2}{3}\ \text{from both sides}\\\\b=2\dfrac{1}{3}$
