Question

Select the correct answer.Which equation represents the line that is perpendicular to y = 1/4 and passes through (-6,-9)?A. x = -9B. X=-6C. y=-9D. y=-4

Answer 1

SOLUTIONS

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 1/4 is the equation of a horizontal line parallel to the x- axis.

A line perpendicular to it will be a vertical line parallel to the y- axis with equation

x = c

where c is the value of the x- coordinates the line passes through.

The line passes through (- 6, - 9 ) with equation

x = - 6 →

Option B
