Question

Consider line A whose equation is y = -10x + 8. If line B is perpendicular to line A and has a y-intercept at y = 3, what is the equation for line B?

Answer 1

y=-10x+3
y=10x+3
y=1/10x+3
y=-1/10x+3

Actually, i would say it is c. If the lines are perpendicular, the slope for each line would be polar opposites. So line A has a slope of -10. The opposite of that would be 1/10 slope.
