Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to write the equation of the line perpendicular to the given line, we first have to know what the slope of the given line is, and there's no way to tell by looking at it in its current form, which is standard. We need to solve that equation for y to determine the slope of that line. Solving for y:
and
3y = 4x - 5 (just change all the signs so our y term isn't negative anymore...yes, you're "allowed" to do that!) and
So we can see now that the slope of this line is 4/3. That means that the perpendicular slope is -3/4. Passing through the given point (3, 5):
* and
and
so
** and, in standard form:
4y = -3x + 29 and
3x + 4y = 29***
* : point-slope form
** : slope-intercept form
*** : standard form
A points location will change after you add a negative value to the y coordinate even if you leave the x coordinate the name because you are changing the value of the y coordinate. For example, if you have (4,6) as a coordinate and then change it to (4,-6), the coordinate will now just be on the other side of the x axis
