Question

Write the equation of a line in slope-intercept form that is perpendicular to the line y equals three-fifths x minus 1 and passes through the point (-9, 4).
	A.	five-thirds x plus 19
	B.	three-fifths x plus forty-seven-fifths
	C.	negative five-thirds x minus 11
	D.	negative five-thirds x plus 19

$$y=\frac{3}{5}x-1$$ though (-9,4)??

anonymous · Answer

slope will be 
$$-\frac{5}{3}$$ then point slope formula 
$$y-y_1=m(x-x_1)$$with 
$$x_1=-9,y_1=4, m=-\frac{5}{3}$$

anonymous · Answer

-5/3x-11 or -5/3x+19 ?

anonymous · Answer

first one
