Write an equation in slope-intercept form for the line described. Write the slope and y-intercept as fractions, if necessary. passes through (−7,−4), perpendicular to y=12x+9

Answer 1

y= (-1/12)x + b. calculate b by plugging in x=-7, y=-4

-4 = (-1/12)(-7) + b

b = -4 -7/12 = -55/12

y = (-1/12)x - 55/12
