\n" ); document.write( "The \"Slope=m%5B1%5D\" of a line \"-3x-5y=2\" is the negative reciprocal--->\"m%5B2%5D=-1%2Fm%5B1%5D\" of the \"Slope=m%5B2%5D\" of the line that passes thru (2,-6). (*perpendicular lines remember?)
\n" ); document.write( "Given line Eqn via Slope-Intercept Form, \"y=mx%2Bb\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"5y=-3x-2\"---->\"cross%285%29y%2Fcross%285%29=%28-3x-2%29%2F5\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"y=highlight%28%28-3%2F5%29%29x-%282%2F5%29\"--> \"Slope=m%5B1%5D=-3%2F5\"
\n" ); document.write( "Then,
\n" ); document.write( "\"m%5B2%5D=-1%2F%28-3%2F5%29=-1%2A%285%2F-3%29=5%2F3\"
\n" ); document.write( "So therfore thru point (2,-6): (Slope-Intercept Form)
\n" ); document.write( "\"-6=%285%2F3%292%2Bb\"---->\"b=-6-10%2F3=%28-18-10%29%2F3=-28%2F3\", Y-intercept
\n" ); document.write( "It follows---->\"highlight%28y=%285%2F3%29x-28%2F3%29%29\", ANSWER
\n" ); document.write( "Let Fy=0---->\"0=%285%2F3%29x-28%2F3\"---->\"%285%2F3%29x=28%2F3\"
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\"x=28%2F5\"
\n" ); document.write( "Let Fx=0---->\"y=%285%2F3%29%280%29-28%2F3\"}---->\"y=-28%2F3\"
\n" ); document.write( "Let's plot the points:
