Write the equation of the line that is perpendicular to the line given and through the given point. Do not use spaces in your equation. x + 2y = 6 (0, 5) *

Respuesta :

Answer:

y = -4x + 17

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the slope intercept formula, we can see the slope of line p is ¼. Since line k is perpendicular to line p it must have a slope that is the negative reciprocal. (-4/1) If we set up the formula y=mx+b, using the given point and a slope of (-4), we can solve for our b or y-intercept. In this case it would be 17.
