Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Recall perpendicular lines have negative-reciprocal slopes. Since the equation has a slope of (), any line perpendicular to it will have a slope of .
Therefore, we have the line:
where is the y-intercept.
We can plug in the point it passes through to find the final equation:
.
Therefore, the equation of the line perpendicular to that passes through the point is:
(slope-intercept form)
However, since the initial line given is in standard form, re-write this equation to standard form:
.
