Question

Write an equation in slope-intercept form for an equation of a line perpendicular to y = -3x +1 and that intersects at point (1, 2/3)

Answer 1

y = 1/3x +1

y + x / -1/3 =1

Answer 2

sry


y + x/-3 =1

Answer 3

fantastic thnx!

Answer 4

Ishaan- I got the first part finding the perpendicular slope, but what did you do in the second?

Answer 5

i think the answer is y=1/3x-1 is that true?

Answer 6

see , i did tht wrong again


y = mx +c

perpendicular line should be

y = -1/mx +b

where b is const

now when u obtain all the other parts except b then wt u do is pt the pts in the eq and get the value of b

in my case

y - x/3 = b

so pts frm which line passes (1 , 2/3)


2/3 - 1/3 =b

1/3=b


y - x/3 = 1/3

sry i did like 4 times this question ..and just messed it up sry
