Answer:
y + 4 = -5(x - 15)
Step-by-step explanation:
The given line has a slope of 1/5. Any new line perpendicular to this given line has a slope which is the negative reciprocal of 1/5: -5.
Use the point-slope equation of a line: y - k = m(x - h), where (h, k) is the point through which the new line passes. Here h = 15 and k = -4, so we have:
y + 4 = -5(x - 15)
This line is perpendicular to the given line and also passes through (15, -4).
Container a because 1/4 is 25% and 1/8 is 0.125
X^2+7x+49/4=-11+49/4
(X+7/2)^2=5/4
X=-9/4
The slope of the line we seek must me the same as the slope of the given line because THE LINES ARE PARALLEL.
The two lines never meet.
The slope of the given line is -7.
See it?
Plug -7 and the given point into the point-slope formula.
y - (-6) = -7(x - 9)
Solve for y.
y + 6 = -7x + 63
y = -7x + 63 - 6
y = -7x + 57
