Question 1189440: Find the equation of the line using the point-slope formula. Write the final equation using slope-intercept form.

perpendicular to 7y=x−4 and passes through the point (−2,2)
Answer by MathLover1(20850) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!

the point-slope formula:
where is a slope and is y-intercept

given:
desired line is perpendicular to
and passes through the point (,)
find a slope of the given line:

=> slope is
perpendicular line will have a slope negative reciprocal to
and it is
so, the slope of perpendicular line is
.........use given point to find
(,)

so, your equation is
