Instructions: Find the equation of the line through point (1,5) and perpendicular to x+3y=6. Use a slash ("/") for fractions (e.g. 1/2 for 12). DO not include spaces in your answers.
Y=_______

Sagot :

1. Turn x+3y=6 into slope intercept form:

3y = 6 - x

y = 2 - 1/3x

2. The perpendicular slope is always the negative reciprocal.

-1/3 becomes 3/1

3. Find the intercept

5 = (3/1)1 +b

b = 2

Answer: y = 3x + 2, or y = 3/1x + 2
