perpendicular y= 1/5 x-3,(5,-21)

perpendicular

y = \frac{1}{5} x - 3, (5, - 21)

y = - 5 x + 4

Solution steps

Find the line

y = mx + b

perpendicular to

y = \frac{1}{5} x - 3

that passes through

(5, - 21)

Find the slope of

y = \frac{1}{5} x - 3 : m = \frac{1}{5}

Compute the slope of the perpendicular line:

m_{p} = - 5

Find the line with slope m=

- 5

and passing through

(5, - 21) : y = - 5 x + 4

y = - 5 x + 4

f (x) = x^{2} + 6 x + 8

f (x) = 12 x + 3

f (x) = 9 x + 3
