Question

#6

Write an equation in slope-intercept
form to represent the line
perpendicular to 2x + 10y = 3 passing
through the point (2,3),
O y = 1/5x + 3/10
O y = 5x + 13
O y = 5x - 7
O y=-1/5X + 17/5

Answer 1

y = -1/5x + 3/10

Explanation:

You want to organize the equation into slope-intercept form: y=mx+b

2x + 10y = 3

Subtract 2x from both sides.

10y = -2x + 3

Divide both sides by 10.

y = -2/10x + 3/10

Simplify.

y = -1/5x + 3/10
