perpendicular y=4x-9,\at b=5

perpendicular

y = - \frac{1}{4} x + c

Solution steps

Find the slope of

y = 4 x - 9 : m = 4

Compute the slope of the perpendicular line:

m_{p} = - \frac{1}{4}

Line with slope m=

- \frac{1}{4} : y = - \frac{1}{4} x + c

y = - \frac{1}{4} x + c

What is the perpendicular y=4x-9,\at b=5 ?
The perpendicular y=4x-9,\at b=5 is y=-1/4 x+c
