Write the equation of the line perpendicular to y=4/3x-5 passing through (8,0). Write the equation in standard form Ax+By=C.
...
y=4/3x-5 passing through (8,0).
...
compare with y= mx +b
m= slope = 4/3
..
slope of line perpendicular to the above line = -3/4
plug the point values and m in
y=mx+b
0=-3/4*8+b
0=-6 +b
b=6
...
equation is
y=(-3/4)x +6
...
multiply the equation by 4
4y=-3x+24
-3x+4y-24 =0
...
