1) BC intercept y at (2,1) (given)
2) The slope of AB ===> m= (-1 - 1)?(14 - 2) ===> m = - 1/6
2) the slope of BC that is perpendicular to AB is the inverse of (1/6) & change the sign, that is 6. To find the function y, apply the formula:
y-y1) = m(x-x1) ===> y-1 = 6(x-2) [the coordinate of B] ==> y= 12x - 11
3) if y= 13, replace y by 13 in the equation:
13 = 12x -11 ===>x = 2
The <u>equation</u>

consists of five <u>terms</u>, three of them contain <u>fractions.</u> The <u>denominators</u> of these fractions are 2, 4 and 6.
Find the LCM(2,4,6). Since
then LCM(2,4,6)=2·2·3=12.
Thus, you have to multiply each term of the equation by 12 to eliminate the fractions.
