Use the given conditions to write an equation for the line i
Use the given conditions to write an equation for the line in point-slope form and slope-intercept. When entering the point-slope form, keep terms with y on the left and keep terms with x on the right. Simplify any fractions as much as possible and do not use decimals.
Passing through (7, -11) and perpendicular to the line whose equation is x-5y+7=0
Q1 - The point-slope form is:
Q2 - The slope-intercept form is: y =
Solution
given line is
x - 5y + 7 = 0
5y = x + 7
y = (x/5) + (7/5)
slope of line = 1/5
for perpensicular lines
m*m1 = -1
m1 = -1/(1/5) = -5
line passes through (7, -11)
A.
point-slope form
(y - y1) = m*(x - x1)
(y - (-11)) = (-5)*(x - 7)
y + 11 = -5x + 35
B.
Slope-intercept form:
y = mx + c
y + 11 = -5x + 35
y = -5x + 35 - 11
y = -5x + 24
