\n" ); document.write( "Line Perpendicular to x - 4y = 7 or \"y+=+%281%2F4%29x+-+7%2F4\"and passing thru (3,4)
\n" ); document.write( "General format for an Equation of a Line is: \"y+=+highlight%28m%29x+%2B+b\"
\n" ); document.write( "New Line: \"m+=+%28-4%29\" slope is the negative recprocal of \"m+=1%2F4\"
\n" ); document.write( " y = -4x + b | Using Pt(3,4) to solve for b
\n" ); document.write( " \"4+=+-4%2A3+%2B+b\"
\n" ); document.write( " 4 = -12 + b
\n" ); document.write( " 16 = b
