6. What is an equation of the line that passes through the point (6,8)
and is perpendicular to a line with equation y = 3
2x + 5?
(1) y − 8 = 2(x − 6)
(3) y + 8 =
2(x + 6)
(2) y - 8 = -(x − 6)
-
(4) y + 8 =
− ½(x + 6)

Answer:

x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 3 is a horizontal line parallel to the x- axis and passing through all points with a y- coordinate of 3

A line perpendicular to this will be a vertical line parallel to the y- axis with equation

x = c ( c is the value of the x- coordinates the line passes through )

the line passes through (6, 8 ) with x- coordinate 6 , then

x = 6 ← equation of perpendicular line
