Question

A walking path across a park is represented by the equation y = -3x - 6. A

new path will be built perpendicular to this path. The paths will intersect at
the point (-3, 3). Identify the
equation that represents the new path.

Answer 1

y = 1/3 x +4

Explanation:

m = 1/3

3 = 1/3(-3) + b

3 = -1 +b

b=4
