Find the equation of a line perpendicular to 4x-y=4 that contains the points (0,3)​

9514 1404 393

  x + 4y = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

The perpendicular line can be found by swapping the x- and y-coefficients and negating one of them. Then those new coefficients can be used with the coordinates of the given point to find the required constant.

  line: 4x -y = 4

  perpendicular line: x +4y = constant

Through (0, 3):

  0 +4(3) = constant = 12

The perpendicular line has standard form equation x +4y = 12.

the formula of a slope:

from a table we have

substitute:

the slope of f(x) is -1.

the graph of funcfion g(x) is a horizontal line. the slope of a horizontal line is equal 0. therefore the slope of g(x) is 0.

-1 < 0
