Y=ax+b, y=cx+d (a≠0, c≠0)
If the two line cross perpendicularly ⇔ ac= -1

So a tangent of the perpendicular line is "-(1/5)".

Then, the equation of the perpendicular line is y=-(1/5)x+a (a is <span> y-intercept</span>).

On the other hand, this equation pass r(1, 3), so 

3 = -(1/5) times 1 + a

∴ a=16 / 5 

Therefore, y=-(1/5)x+16 /5 is answer.

By the way, I'm Japanese so if you find some mistakes in my English, please let me know.

Find the zeros of the function: g(x)=(x -2)(3x +3)
zalisa [80]

Answer:

x = 2 and x = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

The zeroes of the function are found by setting g(x) equal to 0:

g(x) = (x - 2)(3x + 3) = 0

By the Zero Product Property, in order for this equation to be equal to 0, each of (x - 2) or (3x + 3) or both has to equal 0. So, set each equal:

x - 2 = 0

x = 2

3x + 3 = 0

3x = -3

x = -3/3 = -1

The zeroes are thus x = 2 and x = -1.
