Choose the slope-intercept equation of the line that passes through the point (6, 2) and is perpendicular to y = 3x + 6. y = one thirdx y = -one thirdx + 4 y = 3x + 20 y = -3x - 16

@terryluce06

OpenStudy (zehanz):

Product of the slope of perpendicular lines is -1. That leaves you with only one option...

OpenStudy (dmezzullo):

D?

OpenStudy (zehanz):

Is -3*3 equal to -1?

OpenStudy (dmezzullo):

No

OpenStudy (zehanz):

Then it's not D ;)

OpenStudy (dmezzullo):

So then the only other option would be B?

OpenStudy (zehanz):

Yes, because -1/3 * 3 = -1
