A line passes through the orgin and has a slpoe of -3. what is the equation of the line that is perpendicular to the first line and passes through the point (3,4)?
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "The slope of the line you want must be 1/3
\n" ); document.write( "-----
\n" ); document.write( "Find equation of line with m = 1/3 and y = 4 when x = 3.
\n" ); document.write( "------
\n" ); document.write( "Equation Form:
\n" ); document.write( "y = mx + b
\n" ); document.write( "4 = (1/3)(3) = b
\n" ); document.write( "b = 4-1
\n" ); document.write( "b = 3
\n" ); document.write( "------
\n" ); document.write( "Equation: Y = (1/3)x+3
