9-31.
Line
Find the equation of line
. You are given the
-intercept. Calculate the slope and write the equation. Is the point
also on line ? How do you know? Substitute the given point into the equation you wrote in part (a). Do you get a true statement?
Write the equation of a line that is perpendicular to line
and passes through the point . The slope of the perpendicular line will be the opposite reciprocal of line
.
