Answer:
- y = -3x + 14
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to find the line that
- passes through the point (3,5) and
- perpendicular to the line y = 1/3x + 12
Perpendicular lines have negative-reciprocal slopes, so the line will be:
- y = -3x + b
Use the point (3,5) to find the value of y-intercept:
- 5 = -3(3) + b
- b = 5 + 9
- b = 14
So the line is:
- y = -3x + 14
