Find the equation of the line that is perpendicular to y = - 1/3 x + 2 and passes though the point (-5,2)

Mathematics

Answer:

y - 2 = 3(x + 5)

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation has slope -1/3.  Any line perpendicular to the given line has a slope which is the negative reciprocal of -1/3, which comes out to +3.

Use the point-slope formula y - k = m(x - h):

y - 2 = 3(x + 5)

Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:

9


Discussion:

Solution 1:

Distance between two points (x1, y1), (x2,y2) is given by the formula

sqrt(  (x1-x2)^2 + (y1-y2)^2).  In our case this becomes

sqrt( (0-0)^2 +  (12 -3)^2 ) =

sqrt( 9^2) =

9.


Solution 2:

Note points D and E both have x = 0 so segment DE is a vertical segment. The length is simply the difference of the y coordinates: 12- 3 = 9 as before.


Thank you,

MrB
