Answer: y = 2/3x + 41/3
Step-by-step explanation:
First convert the equation into slope-intercept
3x + 6y = 4y - 4
-4y -4y
3x + 2y = -4
-3x -3x
2y = -3x - 4
y = -3/2x - 2
Perpendicular lines have a negative reciprocal for their slopes.
The negative reciprocal of -3/2 is 2/3
Now using the slope 2/3 you will use the formula y =mx +b and input the slope, and the x and y coordinates of the given point, (-10,7), to solve for the y-intercept.
7 = 2/3(-10) + b
7 = -20/ 3 + b
+ 20/3 + 20/3
b = 20/3 + 21/3 = 41/3
Since the the y-intercept is 41/3 then the equation will be , y = 2/3x + 41/3
