Identify an equation in point-slope form for the line perpendicular to y=-1/3x-6 that passes through (–1, 5).

Respuesta :

choixongdong
y=-1/3x-6 slope = -1/3
perpendicular  lines, slope is opposite and reciprocal

so slope = 3
passes through (–1, 5).

Point-slope is point-slope form y-y₁=m(x-x₁)
so equation
y - 5 = 3(x + 1)

hope it helps

The equation in point slope will be given as y - 5 = 3(x + 1)

What is an equation?

The equation in mathematics is the relationship between the variables and the number and establishes the relationship between the two or more variables.

y=-1/3x-6 slope = -1/3

perpendicular lines, the slope is opposite and reciprocal.

so slope = 3

passes through (–1, 5).

Point-slope is point-slope form y-y₁=m(x-x₁) so the equation will be

y - 5 = 3(x + 1)
