Write an equation of the liine that pass through point P and is perpendicular to the line with the given equations

Question

P(0,0),y=-9x-1

 

and

 

P(2,3),y-4=-2(x=3)

Answer 1

A line that is perpendicular to the line y = -9x -1 will have a slope of positive 1/9. If a line goes through the point P(0,0) then the y-intercept will be 0. So now you know the slope of the line, and the y-intercept.

The format for the equation of a line, in slope intercept form is y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. Replace m with 1/9 and b = 0.

 

I don't want to make an assumptions about what is meant by the second equation but it looks like there are too many equal signs.
