Step 1
Step 1: Find the slope of the line using the slope formula: $$m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}$$ where $(x_1, y_1) = (-4, -2)$ and $(x_2, y_2) = (5, 2)$. Show more…

4. Line p contains point (6,-5) and is perpendicular to line q: The equation for line q is y = 3x+ 5. Write an equation for line p. Part I: Find the slope of line q: (1 point) Part II: Find the slope of line p. (Write the negative reciprocal of the slope you found in Part I.) (1 point) Part III: Use the point given for line p and the slope you found in Part II to write an equation for line p in point-slope form: y - y1 = m(x - x1) . (1 point) Part IV: Use your equation from Part III to write an equation for line p in slope-intercept form: y = mx + b. Show your work: (1 point)
