We can use this form of a linear equation to draw the graph of that equation on the x-y coordinate plane. Find the slope m in the equation directly left to the variable x. We have x - 4y -12 lets make it in the form y mx c.
The slope of this line is 14 Slope of perpendicular line will be -4.
The slope of this line is 14 Slope of perpendicular line will be -4. Now substitute replace the values of the variables in the formula. Finding the perpendicular line to a given line is easy. 54 is the answer because the M in YMxb represents slope.
