Question

Can someone please please pleaseee helppp

Answer 1

Explanation:

Hey there!!!

Here,

The point is, (-3,1).

Using one point formula.

(y-1)= m(x+3)....1st equation.

It has said that it is also perpendicular to the line y = 1/3x + 2 .......2nd equation.

Now, the equation with y = mx + c.

We get slope (m2) = 1/3.

Now,

As per the condition of perpendicular lines,

`m1 \: * m2 = - 1`

`m1 * (1)/(3) = - 1`

Simplifying them we get,

m1 = -3.

Therefore the slope is -3.

Hope it helps...
