Question 1071325: Write the standard form of the equation of the line described.
Through:(-3, -2), perpendicular to y=negative 3/5 x-5 Answer by Boreal(15235) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! The perpendicular line has a slope that is the negative reciprocal of -3/5. That would be +5/3
point slope formula
y-y1=m(x-x1), where m is slope and (x1,y1) the point
y+2=(5/3)(x+3)
y=(5/3)x+3
-(5/3)x+y=3
multiply by -3
5x-3y=-9
That does go through (-3,-2)
