Question

Write the equation of the line which passes through (2, –3) and is perpendicular to y = 4x + 7 in standard form.
Thank you <3

Answer 1

well lets say equation of line is y=mx+c
now m=-1/4 because we have to take inverse of the slope of the given line cuz its perpendicular
now y=-1/4 x+ c
now to find c put x=2 and y=-3
-3=-1/4 * 2 + c
-3=-1/2+c
c=-3+1/2
c= -5/2
and your final equation is
y=-1/4 x -5/2

Answer 2

hmmm. ok! Thank you :)
