Answer:

The perpendicular line passing through the point (7,10) is

2 x+y-24=0

Step-by-step explanation:

Step :1

perpendicular condition :-

The condition of perpendicular lines are [tex]m_{1} m_{2} = -1[/tex]

The given line is [tex]y= \frac{1}{2}x-9[/tex]and given point is (7,10)

the standard form of straight line is y=m x+c

The given line is y= \frac{1}{2}x-9

here m = \frac{1}{2}

now by using perpendicular condition solving the slope of perpendicular line is [tex]m_{1} m_{2} =-1[/tex]

     [tex]m_{2} = - \frac{1}{m_{1} }[/tex]

     [tex]m_{2} = \frac{-1}{\frac{1}{2} }[/tex]

    [tex]m_{2} = -2[/tex]

straight line equation

Step 2 :-

The equation of the straight line having slope m=-2 and passing through the point (7,10) is

[tex]y-y_{1} = m (x-x_{1}[/tex])

There fore the equation of perpendicular straight line is

y-10 = -2 (x-7)

[tex]y-10 = -2 x+14[/tex]

Final answer

The equation of perpendicular straight line is

2 x+y-24=0
