Question

13. Write the slope-intercept equation for the line that passes through (-2, 3) and is perpendicular to 2x – 9y = -12

Answer 1

Solve for the slope of the the equation, get the negative reciprocal of the slope, then using the point-slope equation write the resulting equation then do some algebraic manipulation to express it in slope-intercept form.

Answer 2

what?? I have no clue?

Answer 3

sorry I am new to algebra

Answer 4

you have 2x-9y=-12, the negative reciprocal of the slope of this equation is the slope of the line perpendicular to it.
