question two
find the equation of the line passing through the point (1,−5) and perpendicular to y=18x+2
solution
y=
x+

The equation of the line would be y = 3x - 10

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the equation we first need to note that parallel lines have the same slope. So since the original equation has a slope of 3, the new one will as well. Now we can use that slope and the given point in point-slope form to find the equation.

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y + 4 = 3(x - 2)

y + 4 = 3x - 6

y = 3x - 10
