Write an equation of the line that passes through (−1, 3) and is perpendicular to the line y=1/9x−1.

Step-by-step explanation:

General equation of line

y = mx + c

m is slope

y = (1/9)x - 1

1/9 is slope

Since the other line that passes through the point is perpendicular, the product of both slopes is -1

1/9 * m = -1

m = -9

Using point-slope method

y-y1 = m(x-x1)

y-3 = -9(x-(-1))

y-3 = -9(x + 1)

y-3 = -9x -9

y = -9x-6

9 x 8 divided by (5-3)=36

c
