What is the equation of the line that is perpendicular to y= -3x + 1 and passes through (2,3)?

Step-by-step explanation:

  y = 1/3(x -2) +3

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of the given line is the coefficient of x, -3. The slope of the perpendicular line will be the negative reciprocal of that: -1/-3 = 1/3. The line through a point (h, k) with slope m can be written in point-slope form as ...

  y = m(x -h) +k

For m=1/3, (h, k) = (2,3), the equation of the line is ...

  y = (1/3)(x -2) +3
