Write an equation for the line described. Write the equation in the form specified. perpendicular to 4x - 5y = 46, through (9, 2); standard form

Question

Need help on a homework question for my math class

Answer 1

4x - 5y = 46

-5y = 46 - 4x

y = (4/5)x - 46/5

Perpendicular slope is (-5/4)

B = y - mx

= 2 - (-5/4)(9)

= 2 + 45/4

= 8/4 + 45/4

= 53/4

y = (-5/4)x + 53/4

4y = -5x + 53

4y + 5x = 53

5x + 4y = 53
