First find the slope of the line .
(Subtract 3x from each side) \ \
(Apply additive inverse property:
)
(Multiply each side by negative 5) \ \
(Simplify) \ \
The line in slope-intercept form y = mx + b, 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:
)
(Add
to each side)
(Apply additive inverse property:
)
(Add:
)
Substitute for m and
for b in the Slope-intercept form line equation.
The line equation in slope-intercept form is .
