The equation of a line is shown below: y = fraction reading 1 over 5x - 9 What is the equation of a line which is perpendicular to this line and passes through (1, 58)? y = 5x - 63 y = -5x + 63 y = 9x - 63 y = 9x + 63

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Lol i came because your pro pic

OpenStudy (aripotta):

perpendicular lines have negative reciprocal slopes. what is the slope of the given line?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh lol you like it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is the slope

OpenStudy (aripotta):

the slope is the coefficient of x, which is 1/5

OpenStudy (aripotta):

reciprocal means we just flip the fraction, and negative means we just change the sign. so the perpendicular line will have a slope of -5

OpenStudy (anonymous):

omg

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thnxs

OpenStudy (aripotta):

now we really don't need to do any further math, because there's only one answer with -5 slope

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i have a suga daddy im just saying omg to the people

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so its the second one right

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lol ok i omg yeah theres alot
