Question 42481: Write the equation of the line which has y-intercept (0,5) and is perpendicular to the line with equation y=-3x+1 Answer by Nate(3500) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Perpindicular to slope: -3
New slope: (1/3)
y = mx + b
5 = (1/3)0 + b
5 = b
so ....
y = (1/3)x + 5
