Problema Solution

Use the point-slope formula to write an equation of the line given the following information. give your answer (if possible) in:

The line passes through the point (-2,-2) and is perpendicular to the line y=1/3x-5

Answer provided by our tutors

so slope =-3 and passes throught -2,-2

so equation is (y+2)=-3*(x+2)

=>y+2= -3x -6

=>3x+y+8=0
