Question

What is the perpendicular slope to the equation y = –34 + 3, through the point (1, -1)

Answer 1

Explanation:

I'm going to guess that the equation is really

y = -3x +3 not y = -34 + 3

we don't really need the point information to solve this, we know that a perpendicular line has an inverse slope with a sign change

so we know the slope of the perpendicular line is

`(1)/(3)`
