Question 911277: write an equation of the line containing the given point and perpendicular to the given line (9,-7); 7x+8y=3 Answer by ewatrrr(24785) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! perpendicular to y = ( -7/8)x + 3/8
New Line: m = 8/7
***Using point-slope form, P(9,-7)
y + 7 = (8/7)(x-9)
y = (8/7)x - 72/7 - 49/7
y = (8/7)x- 121/7
0r
8x-7y = 121 in Standard Form
