Question 1204121: Write the slope-intercept equation of the function f whose graph satisfies the given conditions. The graph of f passes through (- 4, 9) and is perpendicular to the line that has an x-intercept of 7 and a y-intercept of 14. Answer by MathLover1(20850) (Show Source):

the slope-intercept equation of the function is:
where is a slope and is -intercept
The graph of f passes through (, )
is perpendicular to the line that has an -intercept of and a -intercept of
so, points are:
x-intercept at (,)
y-intercept at (,)
we will find a slope
since this line is perpendicular to the line we are looking for, then a slope of our line will be negative reciprocal of and it is
going back to
....substitute slope
now we have a slope and -intercept, so our line is:
