Given: y-3=4(x-10) passes through (-3,7).

Find: equation of lie that is perpendicular to the given equation

Step-by-step explanation: y-3=4(x-10)

y-3=4x-40

y=4x-37

for to find the equation of perpendicular line ,

y=mx+c

for to equation of line that is perpendicular to y=4x-37

slope m will be


-(1)/(m)

so the equation becomes.


y-7=-(1)/(4)(x+3)

Final answer: option D is correct answer.
