if a > 0, there are two possible solutions:
the square root of a square is the base in absolute value bars
if a = 0, that means x = 0. anything multiplied by 0 is 0
if a < 0, there are no solutions because anything squared has to be positive
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of the line you will find should be in the form y =mx+c , where m is the gradient and c is the y intercept.
The gradient of a line that is perpendicular to a line [of a known gradient] is the negative reciprocal of the gradient of the first. i.e. if a is the known gradient and the perpendicular gradient is b, ab = -1. Therefore the -3b=-1 and b= 1/3
you can now write y = mx +c as y = 1/3x +c
As you have been given a coordinate, you can input these values into y= 1/3x + c
-12 = 1/3(6) +c
-12 - 2 = c
c = -14
hence the equation of the line is y= 1/3x -14
