What is an equation for the line perpendicular to y = 3x - 1 that passes through (-9, -2)?

y = -x - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

A perpendicular line will have a slope that is a negative reciprocal slopes to the slope of the original line, so far our equation looks like this:

y = -x + b

To find our b (y-axis intercept) we will plug in the point they gave us and solve

y = -x + b

(plug in) -2 = -(-9) + b

(mutiply) -2 = 3 + b

(subtract three from both sides)

-5 = b

(flip) b = -5

(plug in) y = -x - 5
