Y = 1/3x ? 6....slope here is 1/3. A perpendicular line will have a negative reciprocal slope. All that means is " flip " the slope and change the sign. So our perpendicular line will have a slope of -3 (see how I flipped 1/3 and changed the sign)

y = mx + b
slope(m) = -3
(-9,12)...x = -9 and y = 12
now we sub and find b, the y int
12 = -3(-9) + b
12 = 27 + b
12 - 27 = b
-15 = b

so ur perpendicular equation is : y = -3x - 15

How do you solve the inequality 6y+3> -18x
Alex17521 [72]
6y + 3 \ \textgreater \  - 18 x

Subtract 3 from both sides:

6 y + 3 - 3 \ \textgreater \  - 18 x - 3

6y \ \textgreater \  - 18 x - 3

Dividade both sides by 6 :

\frac{6y}{6} \ \textgreater \   \frac{-18x-3}{6}

y \ \textgreater \  \frac{-18x-3}{6}

hope this helps!
