Question

Write the equation of a line that is perpendicular to y=3x-2 and that passes through the point (-9, 5)

Answer 1

Answer: y=3x+2

y=3x+2

Explanation:

Perpindicular=opposite reciprocal

3x----> -1/3x

y-y1=m(x-x1)

y-y1=-1/3(x-x1)

y-5=-1/3(x+9)

y-5= -1/3x-9/3

y-5=-1/3x-3

Y= 1/3x+2

Answer 2

3y=-x+6

Explanation:

remember m1*m2=-1
