Y=mx+b
m=slope
b=y intercept
perpendicuar lines have slopes that multiply to get -1
so
solving for y
add 4x both sides and divide by5 to get
y=4/5x+2
slope is 4/5
perpendicular means the slopes multiply to get -1
so
4/5 times what=-1?
what=-5/4
so
y=(-5/4)x+b
find b
given the point (-15,8)
8=(-5/4)(-15)+b
8=75/4+b
-43/4=b
y=(-5/4)x-43/4
(3y)^2
After substituting
(3×-2)^2
= (-6)^2
=(-6)×(-6)= 36
