write an equation in slope-intercept form for a line that is perpendicular to the line y=gx+b and has a y-intercept of k.


m for desired slope
m=-%281%2Fg%29

The given y intercept is to be put into the form for y=mx+k, b in the given equation, k in the requested equation.

Desired line equation highlight%28y=-%281%2Fg%29x%2Bk%29
