Solution
Dear student
The
line
3
x
+
4
y
-
16
=
0
can
be
rearranged
as
4
y
=
-
3
x
+
16
⇒
y
=
-
3
4
x
+
4
Comparing
this
with
the
standard
equation
line
y
=
mx
+
c
where
m
is
the
slope
of
the
line
and
c
is
the
intercept
on
y
axis
slope
of
the
line
=
-
3
4
Thus
slope
of
the
line
perpendicular
to
the
given
line
would
be
-
1
m
=
-
1
-
3
4
=

Equation
of
the
perpendicular
line
would
be
of
the
form
y
=
mx
+
c
where
m
=
4
3
thus
,
y
=
4
3
x
+
c
1
is
the
equation
of
the
line
perpendicular
to
the
line
3
x
+
4
y
-
16
=
0
As
the
line
passes
through
the
point
-
1
,

substituting
x
=
-
1
and
y
=
3
in

=

-
1
+
c
c
=

The
equation
of
the
line
perpendicular
to
the
line

x
+

y
-
