Answer 1

Answer:

            C.    y + 7 = -7(x - 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line is:

                          y - y₀ = m(x - x₀)

where m is the slope and (x₀, y₀) is the point which the line passes through

The product of slopes of two perpendicular lines is  -1

so if given lines slope is ¹/₇ them:

     ¹/₇·m = -1

        m = -7

(3, -7)     ⇒    x₀ = 3,  y₀ = -7

Therefore:

               y - (-7) = -7(x - 3)

                y + 7 = -7(x - 3)
