What is the equation that represents the line perpendicular to 2y equals 7x if the y-intercept is b equals 5?
If the original line has the equation 2y = 7x then this can be written as y = 3.5x and the slope of this line is thus 3.5.
Two straight lines are perpendicular if the product of their gradients is -1.
Let m be the slope of the perpendicular line then, 3.5m = -1 : m = -1/3.5 = -2/7
The equation of the perpendicular line is thus, y = -2/7 * x + b where b is the intercept. As b = 5 then the equation becomes y = -2/7*x + 5
We can multiply by 7 to eliminate the fraction, 7y = -2x + 35
and re-order the terms to become 7y = 35 - 2x

What is the equation that represents the line perpendicular to 2y equals 5x - 4 if the y-intercept is b equals -3?
Convert the equation 2y = 5x - 4 into standard form then y = 2.5x - 2. Two straight lines are perpendicular if the product of their gradients is -1. Let the equation of the perpendicular line by y = mx + b. Then, 2.5m = -1 : m = -1/2.5 The y intercept occurs when x = 0. Then -3 = 0 + bc : b = -3 The equation of the perpendicular line is y = -1/2.5x -3 or 5y = -2x -15
