Perpendicular means that they are like this: |dw:1377973685503:dw|
OpenStudy (abb0t):
rewrite your equation in the form of a line: \(\sf \color{red}{y=mx+b}\)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
the easiest way is to draw it, and then use the slope and points to make the new line
OpenStudy (anonymous):
what do you do after you put it into y=mx+b form?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
graph it

okay? then what?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
could you use the draw tool to show me a visual? I can show you then.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
how?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
push draw, one second
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so I can show you how to make the perpendicular line

why didn't u just put it on the graph that u just posted...
OpenStudy (anonymous):
okay i know that?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
1/2?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
oh nevermind, thanks.. can u help me on another question
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so would that answer be -1/2x-2?

i don't think it's negative.. i think the answer is y=1/2x+2?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
you are probably right
OpenStudy (anonymous):
most likely, I have forgotten how to properly do this aparently
OpenStudy (anonymous):
aha it's okay. do u know how to do this one ''find the slope and y-intercept of the graph 3x-2y+8=0?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
one second

best friend
OpenStudy (anonymous):
the website I mean
OpenStudy (anonymous):
okay, that is for checking, now for actually doing it
OpenStudy (anonymous):
what's the slope and y-intercept though lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):
do you see why I did that?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
no lol
OpenStudy (anonymous):
the y intercept is when you have (x value, 0) when the y value is 0

this will show you how to get the slope. I have to go now, but ask some else or bump this question up if you have any more questions. Good luck!

ok thx
