(3,-6);3x+5y=4\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Write an equation of the line containing the given point and perpindicular to the line
\n" ); document.write( "-----
\n" ); document.write( "Find the slope of the given line:
\n" ); document.write( "5y = -3x+4
\n" ); document.write( "y = (-3/5)x + (4/5)
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "slope = -3/5
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "So, find the equation of the line with
\n" ); document.write( "slope = (-3/5) and y = -6 when x = 3.
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "Equation:
\n" ); document.write( "y = mx + b
\n" ); document.write( "-6 = (-3/5)*3 + b
\n" ); document.write( "-6 = -9/5 + b
\n" ); document.write( "-30/5 = -9/5 + b
\n" ); document.write( "b = -21/5
\n" ); document.write( "--------------
\n" ); document.write( "y = (-3/5)x - (21/5)
