The equation of the line in point-slope form is \( y + 5 = -9(x - 4) \), and in general form, it is \( 9x + y - 31 = 0 \).

Solución

1. The given line is \( x-9y-4=0 \). We first rewrite it in slope-intercept form to find its slope. Isolating \( y \): \[ x-9y-4=0 \quad \Rightarrow \quad -9y = -x+4 \quad \Rightarrow \quad y=\frac{1}{9}x-\frac{4}{9} \] Thus, the slope of the given line is \( m_1=\frac{1}{9} \). 2. The line we want to find is perpendicular to the given line. The slope of the perpendicular line is the negative reciprocal of \( \frac{1}{9} \): \[ m_2=-\frac{1}{\frac{1}{9}}=-9 \] 3. We are given that the line passes through the point \( (4,-5) \). Using the point-slope form of a line: \[ y-y_1=m(x-x_1) \] Substitute \( (x_1,y_1)=(4,-5) \) and \( m=-9 \): \[ y-(-5)=-9(x-4) \] This simplifies to: \[ y+5=-9(x-4) \] 4. To write the general form, expand the point-slope equation: \[ y+5=-9x+36 \] Rearrange to get all terms on one side: \[ 9x+y+5-36=0 \quad \Rightarrow \quad 9x+y-31=0 \] Thus, the equations of the line are: - Point-slope form: \( y+5=-9(x-4) \) - General form: \( 9x+y-31=0 \)

To find the equation of the line, we first need to determine the slope of the given line \(x - 9y - 4 = 0\). Rearranging this to slope-intercept form \(y = mx + b\) gives us: \[ 9y = x - 4 \] \[ y = \frac{1}{9}x - \frac{4}{9} \] The slope of this line is \(\frac{1}{9}\). For a line that is perpendicular to this one, the slope will be the negative reciprocal, which is \(-9\). Now, using the point-slope form of the equation, which is \(y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)\), where \((x_1, y_1)\) is the point through which the line passes, we plug in \((4, -5)\) and the slope \(-9\): \[ y - (-5) = -9(x - 4) \] \[ y + 5 = -9(x - 4) \] Thus, the equation in point-slope form is: \[ y + 5 = -9(x - 4) \] For the general form, we can rearrange this to standard form \(Ax + By + C = 0\): \[ y + 5 = -9x + 36 \] \[ 9x + y - 31 = 0 \] Therefore, your final answers are: Point-slope form: \(y + 5 = -9(x - 4)\) General form: \(9x + y - 31 = 0\)
