Write the equation of the line IN STANDARD FORM that is perpendicular to the line given and through the given point. Do not use spaces in your
equation. y = 1/3x-2 (0,4)

Respuesta :

Answer:

y =1/3x-2

when two lines are perpendicular to each other (m2= -1/m1)

using the formula y=mx+c

m1=1/3

since m1=1/3, the slope of the other line will be -1/1/3

m2= -3

The slope of the second line passing through the point(0,4) = -3

using the formula

y-y1 =m(x-x1)

y-4= -3(x-0)

y-4= -3(x)

y-4= -3x

y= -3x+4(equation of the line)
