Question

Write an equation perpendicular to the line y=2/3x+6, and passing through the point (-3,6)​

Answer 1

y = -3/2x + 1 1/2

Explanation:

the slope would be -3/2 because you have to find the reciprocal and switch the sign. To find the y intercept you would plug in the points to the equation.

6 = -3/2(-3) + b

6 = 4.5 + b

1.5 = b
