Write the equation of a line that is perpendicular to y=75x+6y=\dfrac{7}{5}x+6y=57x+6y, equals, start fraction, 7, divided by, 5, end fraction, x, plus, 6 and that passes through the point (2,−6)(2,-6)(2,− 2, comma, minus, 6, ).

The equation of a line that is perpendicular to and that passes through the point (2, −6) is .

Step-by-step explanation:

If a linear equation is written in this form , m represents the slope and b represents the y-intercept.

When one line has a slope of , a perpendicular line has a slope of .

We know the slope/intercept equation of the line , the slope of this equation is and the negative reciprocal of that slope is:

The perpendicular line will have a slope of:

we use the point given (2, -6) to find the equation of the perpendicular line

and we solve for y

The equation of a line that is perpendicular to and that passes through the point (2, −6) is .

We can check our work with the graph of the two lines.

describing distributions is one of the key skills you’ll need to earn a high score on the ap statistics exam. if you need proof of this, just flip through some past exam questions, which can be found at the collegeboard website. you’ll notice that the first free response question is almost always a question requiring you to look at a graph and describe it.

step-by-step explanation: just trying to get points sorry : (

step-by-step explanation:

the slope of a line is equal to the rise/run. in this case the line rises 2 units for every +3 units it moves
