Expert Solution & Answer
Check Mark

Answer to Problem 28STP

The right option is B .

Explanation of Solution

Given:

The given line is 3xy=6 and the given point is (3,4) .

Calculation:

Find the slope of the line 3xy=6 .

Write the equation in the form of y=mx+c, where m is the slope of the line.

  3xy=6

Subtract 3x from both sides.

  3xy3x=63xy=63xy=3x6m=3

Slope of the perpendicular line =1m=13 .

Now use the point-slope form [yy1=m(xx1)] of the equation for perpendicular line.

  (x1,y1)=(3,4)

  y4=13[x(3)]y4=13[x+3]y4=13x1y4+4=13x1+4y=13x+3

Hence theright option is B .
