Question 1103575: Write the slope-intercept equation of the function f whose graph satisfies the given conditions. The graph of f is perpendicular to the line whose equation is 3x-5y-10=0 and has the same y-intercept as this line. Answer by Boreal(15235) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! 3x-5y=10
-5y=-3x+10
y=(3/5)x-2
Line perpendicular has a negative reciprocal slope or -5/3 and goes through (0, -2), the y-intercept of the line.
Point slope formula y-y1=m(x-x1) ; m slope and (x1, y1) point
Y+2=(-5/3)(x)
y=(-5/3)x-2
