\n" ); document.write( "containing the point (6,-4) and perpendicular to the line y=-2x-3
\n" ); document.write( "-----------\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Want slope \"1%2F2\".
\n" ); document.write( "To include the given point, \"-4=%281%2F2%29%2A6%2Bb\";
\n" ); document.write( "\"-4-%286%2F2%29=b\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"b=-7\"
\n" ); document.write( "so the equation is \"highlight%28y=x%2F2-7%29\".
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
