Question

Y-2=6(x+4) ( write in slope intercept form). Identify M Perpendicular

Answer 1

y = 6x + 26. perpendicular = -1/6

Explanation:

multiply out the equation:

y - 2 = 6x + 24

move the 2 over and add it:

y = 6x + 24 + 2 = 6x + 26.

y = 6x + 26.

gradient = 6

if gradient is m, perpendicular is given by -1/m

= -1/6
