Find the equation of the line perpendicular to the line 6y-18x=12 that pases through the point (0, -5)

y = -x/3 -5

Step-by-step explanation:

when two lines are perpendicular, the relation between the slopes of the lines m1 and m2

m1m2 = -1

The general equation of a line is given as

y = mx + c where m is the slope and c is the intercept

Considering the given equation

6y-18x=12

6y  = 18x + 12

Divide through by 6

y = 3x + 2

comparing with y = mx + c,

m = 3

hence the slope of the perpendicular line m2

= -1/3

Given that the line passes through the point (0, -5)

Using the equation y - y1 = m(x - x1) to find the equation

y - - 5 = -1/3(x - 0)

y + 5 = -x/3

y = -x/3 -5
