The answer to your problem is 20 inches.
The slope of the line given its equation is calculated through, m = -A / B. The slope of the given line is 4/3. The line perpendicular to it has the slope of -3/4. The slope-point form of the equation is,
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
where m is the slope and x1 and y1 the abscissa and ordinate of the point, respectively.
Substituting the values above,
y --2 = (-3/4)(x - 3)
Simplifying the equation gives 3x + 4y = 1.
