Perpendicular lines have slopes that are opposite and reciprocal. Therefore, the line we are looking for has a -3 slope.
y= -3x+b
Now, we can substitute in the point given to find the intercept.
2= -3(4)+b
2= -12+b
b=14
Finally, put in everything we've found to finish the equation.
y= -3x+14
Answer:
42
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve backwards
37+3+2=42
Double check
42-3-2=37
We plug the value of x into the equation:
2x+1
2(5)+1
10+1
11
