Question

PLEASE HELP I DONT UNDERSTAND

Write the equation of the line in slope-intercept form that is perpendicular to y = x - 2 and that
passes through the point (6,-5). Show all of your work.

Answer 1

Answer:

y = -x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

eqn of line: y=mx+c

perpendicular, m1 x m2 = -1

m × 1 = -1

m = -1

y=-x+c

sub x=-5, y=6

6 = -(-5) +c

6 = 5 + c

c = 1

y = -x + 1
