First find the slope of the line .
Apply subtraction property of equality: If a = b than a – c = b – c.
\ (Subtract 3x from each side)
(Apply additive inverse property:
)
\
Apply multiplication property of equality: If a = b than a c = b
c c
0.
(Multiply each side by negative 5)
(Cancel common terms)
The line in slope-intercept form , where m is slope and b is y-intercept.
Compare the equation with slope-intercept form and find the slope of the line.
\= 15
\If two lines are perpendicular, the slope (m1) of one line is opposite reciprocal of the second line slope (m2). It can be represented as, .
Slope of the line perpendicular to given line is
So, slope of the new line = .
The line equation in slope-intercept form is , where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
First find the y-intercept value.
\ (Substitute
for m)
(Substitute 6, –5 for x, y)
(Multiply:
)
Apply addition property of equality: If a = b than a + c = b + c.
\ (Add
to each side)
(Apply additive inverse property:

Substitute for m and
for b in the Slope-intercept form line equation.
The line equation in slope-intercept form is .
