<u>Given</u><u> </u><u>:</u><u>-</u>
- Line p has an equation of y = 5/3x - 4 .
- Line q includes point (-10,-3) and is perpendicular to the line p .
<u>To </u><u>Find</u><u> </u><u>:</u><u>-</u>
<u>Solution</u><u> </u><u>:</u><u>-</u>
The equation of the line p is ,
y = 5/3x - 4
On comparing to slope intercept form of the line which is y = mx + c , we have ,
m = 5/3
Now as we know that the product of slopes of two perpendicular lines is -1 . So the slope of the perpendicular line will be ,
Now here the line q passes through the point (-10,-3) . So on using the point slope form of the line we get ,
y - (-3) = -3/5[ x-(-10)]
y +3 = -3/5(x+10)
y+3 = -3/5x - 6
y +9 = -3/5x
y = - 3/5x - 9
<u>Hence</u><u> the</u><u> required</u><u> answer</u><u> is</u><u> </u><u>y </u><u>=</u><u> </u><u>-</u><u>3</u><u>/</u><u>5</u><u>x</u><u> </u><u>-</u><u> </u><u>9</u><u> </u><u>.</u>
Let's rearrange the equation x + y = 6 to slope-intercept form. Solve for y.
x + y = 6
To get the y variable on the left-hand side alone, subtract x from each side.
x + y - x = 6 - x
y = 6 - x
Rearrange the right-hand side.
y = -x + 6
Now we have it in the slope-intercept form. And to find the slope, we look at the coefficient of x. But there is no coefficient of the -x term!
In all reality, there is. However, it's just 1. -1x is the same thing as -x. We don't show the 1 because it has no effect.
So, -1 is the slope.
