∙ 15y agoy = 4x − 9 The equation is already in the slope intercept form: y = mx + b
where m is the slope of the line and b is the y-intercept
The perpendicular to a given slope m is −1/m Therefore, the perpendicular for the given equation is −1/4 !! Without a known point on the new line, no equation can be given here !! We can assume two possible points on the original equation and the origin just for fun: For (0, -9) the y-intercept . . . y = -x/4 - 9
For (0, 0) the origin .. . . . . . . y = -x/4
For (2.25, 0) the x-intercept . y = -x/4 + 0.5625
