The equation is .
Find the x-intercept, substitute y = 0.
\Subtract 3 from each side.
\Divide each side by 5.
\So, the coordinate points is (, 0).
If two lines are perpendicular, the slope () of one line is opposite reciprocal of the second line slope (
). It can be represented as,
.
So, slope of the line perpendicular to given line is .
Substitute (
, 0) and
in the point-slope form
.
The slope-intercept form in perpendicular line equation is .
Graph each line on a coordinate planes.
\Graph of the slope-intercept form in perpendicular line equation is .
