Question
Find the equation of the line with the given description.\begin{equation}\begin{array}{l}{\text { Perpendicular to } 3 x+5 y=9, \text { passes through }(2,3)}\end{array}\end{equation}
Step 1
The given line is in the form $ax+by=c$. We can rewrite this in the form $y=mx+b$ to find the slope. The given line is $3x+5y=9$. We can rewrite this as $y=\frac{-3}{5}x+\frac{9}{5}$. Show more…
