Answer:
y = 6x + 9
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- interceot form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
Rearrange 2x + 12y = - 1 into this form
Subtract 2x from both sides
12y = - 2x - 1 ( divide all terms by 12 )
y = - x -
← in slope- intercept form
with slope m = -
Given a line with slope m then the slope of a line perpendicular to it is
= -
= -
= 6
Note the line passes through (0, 9) on the y- axis ⇒ c = 9
y = 6x + 9 ← equation of perpendicular line
