Which of these lines is perpendicular to the line y = 3x + 2?
Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

(c)  y=\frac{-1}{3}x+4  will be perpendicular to the line y = 3x+2

Step-by-step explanation:

We have given the the equation of line as y = 3x+2

We know the equation of line as y = mx+c , here m is slope and c is intercept

On comparing with standard equation of line m = 3

We know that slope of perpendicular line is =\frac{-1}{m}

So the slope of the line which is perpendicular to y = 3x+2  will be =\frac{-1}{3}

Now (a) Line is given as y=\frac{1}{3}x+3 its slope is \frac{1}{3} so it will be not perpendicular

(b)  Line is given as y=\frac{1}{3}x+2 its slope is \frac{1}{3} so it will be not perpendicular

(c)  Line is given as y=\frac{-1}{3}x+4 its slope is \frac{-1}{3} so it will be perpendicular to the line y = 3x+2

(d) Line is given as y=3x+\frac{1}{2} its slope is 3 so it will not perpendicular to the line y = 3x+2
