Question

Find the equation of the line that has given properties

perpendicular to the line y = -3x + 11 passes through (6,1)

Answer 1

Answer:
`y-1=(1)/(3)(x-6)`

Explanation:

Perpendicular lines have negative reciprocal slopes, so the slope of the line we want to find is 1/3.

Substituting into point-slope form, we get the equation to be
`y-1=(1)/(3)(x-6)`.
