Passing through (-1, -2) and perpendicular to the line whose equation is y + 6 =4/5 (x-5) write an equation in slope intercept form

Respuesta :

Answer:

y = - [tex]\frac{5}{4}[/tex] x - [tex]\frac{13}{4}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in point- slope form is

y - b = m(x - a)

where m is the slope and (a, b) a point on the line

y + 6 = [tex]\frac{4}{5}[/tex](x - 5) ← is in point- slope form

with slope m = [tex]\frac{4}{5}[/tex]

Given a line with slope m then the slope of a line perpendicular to it is

[tex]m_{perpendicular}[/tex] = - [tex]\frac{1}{m}[/tex] = - [tex]\frac{1}{\frac{4}{5} }[/tex] = - [tex]\frac{5}{4}[/tex]

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Here m = - [tex]\frac{5}{4}[/tex] , thus

y = - [tex]\frac{5}{4}[/tex] x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (- 1, - 2) into the partial equation

- 2 = [tex]\frac{5}{4}[/tex] + c ⇒ c = - 2 - [tex]\frac{5}{4}[/tex] = - [tex]\frac{13}{4}[/tex]

y = - [tex]\frac{5}{4}[/tex] x - [tex]\frac{13}{4}[/tex] ← equation of perpendicular line

Step-by-step explanation:

Hey there!

Given,

The line is passing through point (-1,-2) and perpendicular to the line (y+6) = 4/5(x-5).

Now,

The equation of a st.line passing through point (-1,-2) is,

[tex](y - y1) = m1(x - x1)[/tex]

Put all values.

[tex](y + 2) = m1(x + 1)[/tex]

It is the 1st equation.

Another equation is (y+6)= 4/5(x-5).

[tex]y = \frac{4}{5} x - 10[/tex]

From equation (ii) {After comparing the equation with y =mx+c}.

We get,

M2= 4/5.

Now,

As per the condition of perpendicular lines,

m1×m2= -1.

[tex]m1 \times \frac{4}{5} = - 1[/tex]

Simplify them to get answer.

[tex]4m1 = - 5[/tex]

Therefore the slope is, -5/4.

Now, keep the slope in 1st equation.

[tex](y + 2) = \frac{ - 5}{4} (x + 1)[/tex]

Simplify them to get answer.

[tex](y + 2) = \frac{ - 5}{4} x - \frac{5}{4} [/tex]

[tex]y = \frac{ - 5}{4} x - \frac{5}{4} - 2 [/tex]

[tex]y = \frac{ - 5}{4} x - \frac{13}{4} [/tex]

Therefore the required equation is y = -5/4x -13/2.

Hopeit helps....
