Question

Write the equation of a line that is perpendicular to the given line and that passes through the given point.

Answer 1

Answer:

$y = -1\frac{1}{2}x - 4$

Step-by-step explanation:

5 = −1½[−6] + b

9

$-4 = b \\ \\ y = -1\frac{1}{2}x - 4$

Perpendicular Lines have OPPOSITE MULTIPLICATIVE INVERSE RATE OF CHANGES [SLOPES], so ⅔ becomes −3⁄2 [or −1½].
