Question

Write an equation of the line that passes through point (2, -1) and is perpendicular to y = 2/3 x - 4.

Answer 1

Answer:

y=-3x/2+2

Step-by-step explanation:

slope of original line : 2/3

slope of line perpendicular:

(m)(2/3)=-1

m=-3/2

point slope form:

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

2y+2=-3x+6

y=-3x/2+2
