Question

Please show me the work-an equation of the line that is perpendicular to the given line -10x + 8y = 3 and passes through the given point (15, 12).

Answer 1

8y=10x+3

Answer 2

y=10/8x+3/8

Answer 3

now take the slope and plug it into the equation

\[y-y_o=m(x-x_o)\]

Answer 4

\[y-12=\frac{10}{8}(x-15)\]

Answer 5

is that the answer?

Answer 6

you could probably simplify it a bit more if you wanted to

Answer 7

how would I goabout that?

Answer 8

How do I graph it

Answer 9

y=1.25x-6.75

Answer 10

I would then pick a number for x try zero and one. at point (0,-6.75) and at (1,-5.5) you can then plot those two points on a graph and connect the dots
