perpendicular y=-6x-7,(-6,-7)

perpendicular

y = \frac{1}{6} x - 6

Solution steps

Find the line

y = mx + b

perpendicular to

y = - 6 x - 7

that passes through

(- 6, - 7)

Find the slope of

y = - 6 x - 7 : m = - 6

Compute the slope of the perpendicular line:

m_{p} = \frac{1}{6}

Find the line with slope m=

\frac{1}{6}

and passing through

(- 6, - 7) : y = \frac{1}{6} x - 6

y = \frac{1}{6} x - 6

What is the perpendicular y=-6x-7,(-6,-7) ?
The perpendicular y=-6x-7,(-6,-7) is y= 1/6 x-6
