Question 1165754: Find an equation of the line perpendicular to the line y=-5x+86, through the point (-30,3). Write the answer in slope-intercept form. Answer by Boreal(15235) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! perpendicular lines have slope products=-1
so the line needed has a slope of +(1/5)
use point slope where y-y1=m((x-x1), m slope and (x1, y1) point
y-3=(1/5)(x+30)
y=(1/5)x+9 ANSWER
