Step 
<u>Find the slope of the given line</u>
Let
slope mAB is equal to
Step 
<u>Find the slope of the line that is perpendicular to the given line</u>
Let
CD ------> the line that is perpendicular to the given line
we know that
If two lines are perpendicular, then the product of their slopes is equal to 
so
Step 
<u>Find the equation of the line with mCD and the point (3,0)</u>
we know that
the equation of the line in the form point-slope is equal to
Multiply by both sides
therefore
the answer is
the equation of the line that is perpendicular to the given line is the equation
In order to find the value first multiply both sides by 100 to simplify the equation:
0.05w*100=15*100
5w=1500
Next, divide both sides of the equation by 5:
5w/5=1500/5
w=300
The final solution is w=300!
Hope i could help.
have a great day
y + 8 = 1/3 (x+6)
With the given information, we can use the point-slope formula, , to write the equation of the line. Substitute values for the , , and in the formula to do so.
The represents the slope, so substitute in its place. The and represent the x and y values of one point the line intersects, so substitute -6 for and -8 for . This gives the following answer and equation (just make sure to convert the double negatives into positives:
