A line contains the piont (4,5) and is perpendicular to a line with a slope of -2/3. Write an equarion of the line satisfying the given conditions. Write the answer in slope-intercept form

or, preferably,

Step-by-step explanation:

First is to find the perpendicular slope. In this case, you swap the numerator and denominator and then multiply that fraction by -1.

In this case, -2/3's inverse slope is 3/2.

Now, the initial y=3/2 passes through 7.5,5

So, you must subtract 3.5 from that to make it pass through 4,5.

In this way, you get the answer in slope-intercept form.

y = x - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a line with slope m then the slope of a line perpendicular to it is

= - = - = , then

y = + c ← partial equation in slope- intercept form

To find c substitute (4, 5) into the partial equation

5 = 6 + c ⇒ c = 5 - 6 = - 1

y = x - 1 ← equation of line
