perpendicular y= 3/5 x-1/5 ,(-3,11)

perpendicular

y = \frac{3}{5} x - \frac{1}{5}, (- 3, 11)

y = - \frac{5}{3} x + 6

Solution steps

Find the line

y = mx + b

perpendicular to

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

that passes through

(- 3, 11)

Find the slope of

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

Compute the slope of the perpendicular line:

m_{p} = - \frac{5}{3}

Find the line with slope m=

- \frac{5}{3}

and passing through

(- 3, 11) : y = - \frac{5}{3} x + 6

y = - \frac{5}{3} x + 6

What is the perpendicular y= 3/5 x-1/5 ,(-3,11) ?
The perpendicular y= 3/5 x-1/5 ,(-3,11) is y=-5/3 x+6
