What is the equation in slope-intercept form of the line that crossed the x-axis at 36 and is perpendicular to the line represented by y= -4/9x + 5?

d

step-by-step explanation:

i used the pitagoras theoreme

take the logarithm of both sides (the base of the log doesn't matter):

apply the exponent property - this says that :

distribute the log terms on both sides:

group like terms together:

divide through both sides by the coefficient on :

you can do some additional rewriting here using the properties of the logarithm to simplify things if you like:

it goes right
