How do you get the perpendicular to the equation 4x-3y equals 7? - Answers

Write the equation of the given line in standard form: y = mx + c so: 3y = 4x - 7 or y = 4/3x - 7/3 The slope of the given line is 4/3. The slope of the line perpendicular to it is the negative reciprocal (change the sign and flip the fraction over). ie the perpendicular has slope -3/4 So the equation of the perpendicular is of the form y = -3/4x + d or 4y = - 3x + 4d or 3x + 4y = 4d. To evaluate the value of the constant d (or 4d) you will need one point on the perpendicular line. Substitute the coordinates of that point for x and y in the above equation and you've got 4d.

The slope of the line perpendicular to it is the negative reciprocal (change the sign and flip the fraction over). ie the perpendicular has slope -3/4 So the equation of the perpendicular is of the form y = -3/4x + d or 4y = - 3x + 4d or 3x + 4y = 4d. To evaluate the value of the constant d (or 4d) you will need one point on the perpendicular line. Substitute the coordinates of that point for x and y in the above equation and you've got 4d.
