Question

What is the slope of the line perpendicular to 2x-3y=8

Answer 1

Answer:

y = - $\frac{3}{2}$x - $\frac{8}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

2x-3y=8

rewrite, solve for y

3y = 2x - 8

divide by 3

y = $\frac{2}{3}$x - $\frac{8}{3}$

perpendicular = negative reciprocal slope = - $\frac{3}{2}$

Answer 2

Answer:

X=11/2

Step-by-step explanation:

2x=8+3

2x=11

x=11/2
