To find the equation of a perpendicular line, you first need to find the negative reciprocal of the slope given. The slope is -1/3, so the slope of the perpendicular line will be 3
Now we just need to find the y intercept using the point (3, 2) and you can plug the coordinates in and then solve for b. Let's see what that looks like.
y=3x+b
2=3*(3)+b
2=9+b
-7=b So now we know the y-intercept and slope. We just put them together now
y=3x-7
I can’t see the photo is blurry
Multiply both sides of the equation by 28 4y+7=10
Then move constants to the right side and change its sign 4y=10-7
Now subtract the numbers 4y=3 divide both sides by 4 so your answer is y=3/4
Answer:
x = -14
Step-by-step explanation:
x/4 = -3.5
Multiply both sides by 4:
x/4*4 = -3.5 * 4
x = -14
