The equation of line LM is y = 5x + 4. Write an equation of a line perpendicular to line LM in slope-intercept form that contains point (−3, 2).

Sagot :

the equation would be y-2=(-1/5)(x+3) because perpendicular lines have opposite sign reciprocal slopes. the equation for slope intercept is
y-y1=m(x-x1) so you plug in the point & the new slope
