ok .. how do i find the equation
OpenStudy (anonymous):
(y-5)=4(x--2) --->y-5=4x+8 --->y=4x+13
OpenStudy (anonymous):
is this the answer
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ya
OpenStudy (anonymous):
y=4x+13 ?

it doesnt tell you it. Unless you get it right
OpenStudy (anonymous):
let me ask you a ques..is this y=1/(4x)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
opps i Made a mistake in the problem Its supposed to be (2,-5) My bad I'm just so tired right now
OpenStudy (anonymous):
and no its like this .. y = 1/4x
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok..so then it is y--5=4(x-2) =y+5=4x-8 -->y=4x-3

try this
OpenStudy (anonymous):
still wrong /:
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ya now i made a mistake
OpenStudy (anonymous):
it is y--5=-4(x-2) --->y+5=-4x+8 --->y=-4x+3
OpenStudy (anonymous):
is this the right one?

the problem is right.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
y=(1/4)x are you sure and is it 'perpendicular'?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
not parallel
OpenStudy (anonymous):
IM SURE its perpendicular
OpenStudy (anonymous):
i read over it plenty of times

do you know how to do this ..
OpenStudy (anonymous):
this is how it is done..i think it should be given in standard form
OpenStudy (anonymous):
4x+y-3=0
OpenStudy (anonymous):
same thing..different appearence
OpenStudy (anonymous):
will you try with this
