4 and 5 because it talks about how
y = - 3
the equation of a horizontal line, parallel to the x- axis is y = c where c is the value of the y- coordinate the line passes through
Line passes through ( - 7, - 3) → y- coordinate is - 3
equation of line is y = - 3
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
first we gotta find the slope of the first line
(-4,-3),(4,1)
slope = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1) = (1- (-3) / (4 - (-4) = (1 + 3) / (4 + 4) = 4/8 = 1/2
so the slope is 1/2.....so we are looking for a line that is perpendicular....perpendicular lines have negative reciprocal slopes...all that means is flip the slope and change the sign....so the slope we need is :
1/2....flip it....2/1.....change the sign....-2.....we need a -2 slope
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
slope = -2
(-4,3)...x1 = -4 and y1 = 3
now sub
y - 3 = -2(x - (-4) =
y - 3 = -2(x + 4) <=====
