You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Perpendicular lines have a negative inverse, reciprocal, slope.
\n" ); document.write( "...
\n" ); document.write( "Using the line y = 6x+10, the slope is 6
\n" ); document.write( "...
\n" ); document.write( "A perpendicular line will have a slope of \"-1%2F6\"
\n" ); document.write( "...
\n" ); document.write( "use the slope and point (0, -4) to find the equation via point-slope
\n" ); document.write( "y - -4 = \"-1%2F6\"(x-0)
\n" ); document.write( "y + 4 = \"-1%2F6\"x
