Write an equation in slope-intercept form that is perpendicular to y = -7x + 3 and passing through (14.1).

y = 1/7x -1

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Find the slope.

- In this case, the equation given is in simplest form so you can easily come to the conclusion that '-7' is the slope. But, since the math question wants a slope-intercept form in perpendicular form, the slope would actually be 1/7.

2) Use the point-slope form and substitute the values available. Then solve.

m (slope) = 1/7

(a, b) = (14, 1)

y - b = m(x - a)

y - 1 = 1/7(x - 14)

y - 1 = 1/7x - 2

y = 1/7x - 1

The result is your answer.
