find the equation of the line perpendicular to the line 2x+3y=5 at the point (-2,3)
2 answers
and your thinking is..?
perpendicular lines have opposite sign and reciprocal slopes from the original line you are given. put the first equation into proper form
y= (-2x/3)+(5/3)
the slope in this case is -2/3
Therefor a perpendicular line will have the slope 3/2.
y= (-2x/3)+(5/3)
the slope in this case is -2/3
Therefor a perpendicular line will have the slope 3/2.
