Write the standard form of the equation of the line described.
\n" ); document.write( "Through; (-4,-5) perp to $\"y=expr%28-4%2F7%29x-2\"$
\n" ); document.write( "

\r\n" );
document.write( "Take the \r\n" );
document.write( "Change its sign. Get \r\n" );
document.write( "Invert it. Get \r\n" );
document.write( "Write \r\n" );
document.write( "Substitute x=-4 and y=-5\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "-5=-7+b\r\n" );
document.write( "2=b\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "Substitute 12 for b in , get .\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "If we draw the graphs of each, we get what is below.  The red line is \r\n" );
document.write( "the graph of the given equation, and the green one is the line through \r\n" );
document.write( "(-4,-5) which is perpendicular to it.\r\n" );
