Indicate in standard form equation of the line passing through the given 

x - 3y= -14

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope is rise over run

m = (6-5)/(4-1) = 1/3

we write in slope-intercept form:

y = 1/3x + b

solve for b by plugging in either point

i'm going to plug in H

5 = 1/3 + b

b = 14/3

we get our equation

y = 1/3x + 14/3

now re-write it in standard form

-1/3x + y = 14/3

make it pretty

x - 3y = -14

y = 5x + 17

step-by-step explanation:

a perpendicular line will be the opposite reciprocal slope of the given equation.   the slope given is -1/5 so the opposite reciprocal is 5

find b:

7 = 5 (-2) + b

7 = -10 + b

17 = b

write equation

y = 5x + 17

hi! i think the answer is 1/2 : )
