Given:-
- The equation of a line perpendicular to the line x/4 + y/6 = 1.
To find:-
- Find the equation of the line ...?
Solutions:-
- The equation of the given line is x/4 + y/6 = 1.
This equation can also be 3x + 2y - 12 = 0
y = -3/2 x + 6, the form y = mx + c
Therefore,
Slope of the given line = -3/2
Slope of line perpendicular to the given line
=> -1/(-3/2)
=> 2/3
- Let the given line intersect the y - axis at (0, y) on substitution x with o in the equation of the given line, we obtain.
The given line intersect the y - axis at (0, 6)
The equation of the line that has a slope at 2/3 and passes through points (o, 6).
=> (y - 6) = 2/3 (x - 0)
=> 3(y - 6) = 2x
=> 3y - 18 = 2x
=> 2x - 3y + 18 = 0
Hence, the required equation of the line is 2x - 3y + 18 = 0.
