Answer:

The answer to your question is the letter b)    y = -3x + 11

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

Original line  y = 1/3x - 2

Point = (3, 2)

New line = ? (perpendicular)

Process

1.- Get the slope of the original line

The slope is the coefficient of the x in the line equation.

       y = 1/3x - 2

       slope = m = 1/3

2.- Find the slope of the new line

       new slope = -3  (because the lines are perpendicular)

3.- Find the equation of the new line

         y - y1 = m(x - x1)

 x1 = 3    y1 = 2

-Substitution

        y - 2 = -3(x - 3)

-Simplification

        y - 2 = -3x + 9

        y = -3x + 9 + 2

-Result

       y = -3x + 11

Find the point, M, that divides segment AB into a ratio of 5:2 if A is at (1, 2) and B is at (8, 16).
Oliga [24]
5:2 is a 5 to 2 ratio
a midpoint P between tow points is
((x1+x2)/2, (y1+y2)/2)
I would start there, adjust it to get a ratio of 5:2 from 1:2
for one thing the point should be on the line between the other two points
