Aline contains the points (–2, –6) and (4, 1). using point-slope form, write the equation of the line that is perpendicular to the given line and that passes through the point (4, 1).

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the slope formula, substitute the points (-2,-6) and (4,1).

This is the slope of the two points. The slope perpendicular to it will be the negative reciprocal -6/7. Substitute m = -6/7 and the point (4,1) into the point to write the equation of the line.

20

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute these numbers in the expression.

You get-

4+ (7-5)^4

Now use PEMDAS.

Solve the parentheses first.

4+2^4.

Solve 2^4.

4+16

Add.

20.

Hope this helps! :)
