can somebody tell me if i'm right! i have to express my answer in slope-intercept form.
\n" ); document.write( "Perpendicular to the line 5y+2x=7 and containing the point (3,0).
\n" ); document.write( "i got \"y+=+%285%2F2%29x%2B6\" for my answer is this correct?
\n" ); document.write( "
\r\n" );
document.write( "No, it should be \"y=%285%2F2%29x-15%2F2\".\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "You got the slope correct.  But you should use the \r\n" );
document.write( "point-slope form:\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\"y-y%5B1%5D=m%28x-x%5B1%5D%29\"\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "with \"m=5%2F2\", \"x%5B1%5D=3\", \"y%5B1%5D=0\"\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\"y-0=%285%2F2%29%28x-3%29\"\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\"y=%285%2F2%29x-15%2F2\"\r\n" );
