Answer 1

Choose the slope-intercept equation of the line that passes through the point shown and is perpendicular to the line shown.

y = -three halvesx

y = three halvesx - 6

y = -two thirdsx - 5 thirds

y = two thirdsx - 13 thirds

Answer 2

i put y = three halvesx - 6

Answer 3

Not quite...what's the slope of the new line?

Answer 4

3?

Answer 5

Well the slope of the line shown...is 2/3 right? so a line perpendicular to that would be the negative reciprocal right? so instead of 2/3 ...it would be -3/2 ...make sense?

Answer 6

ya

Answer 7

And since there's only 1 answer choice with that...you have your answer quickly lol

Answer 8

so its just y = -3x + 2

Answer 9

Where do you see an answer choice that has just -3?

Answer 10

i ment to say so y = -three halvesx is the answer A. or the first one

Answer 11

That is correct!
