Choose the slope-intercept equation of the line that passes through the point shown and is perpendicular to the line shown. line through the points 0 comma 3 and 3 comma 5 with the point 2 comma negative 3 not on the line y = -three halvesx y = three halvesx - 6 y = -two thirdsx - 5 thirds y = two thirdsx - 13 thirds

I can post an image of the graph if that makes it easier.

OpenStudy (the_fizicx99):

Kinda hard to visualize it. Do you have your m (slope)

OpenStudy (lena772):

OpenStudy (lena772):

SLOPE y2-y1/x2-x1

OpenStudy (lena772):

5-3/3-0 2/3

OpenStudy (lena772):

slope (m): 2/3

OpenStudy (lena772):

i guess it's d if that's the only option when the slope is 2/3

OpenStudy (the_fizicx99):

Yep

OpenStudy (lena772):

wait actually the perpendicular line would be the negative recipricol of the line given?

OpenStudy (the_fizicx99):

Yea parallel stays the same, perpendicular is recipricol. -3/2

OpenStudy (lena772):

So option A

OpenStudy (the_fizicx99):

Yea, you can make sure :P
