Hope that helped.
The line to find: y = mx + b
the line perpendicular to y= 2/5x+6/6 so it has the slope m × 2/5 = -1
thus the slope m = -5/2
the line passes through the point (-2,6) so:
6 = (-5/2)×(-2) + b so b = 1
the equation of the line is y = -5/2x +1
4a = 36
to solve for a, divide both sides by 4 to get a by itself.
<u>4a</u> = <u>36
</u> 4 4
<u>
</u>a = 9
