Write an equation for the line perpendicular to the line y= -2/3+7 which passes through the point (-5,6)

Y = -2/3x + 7the slope here is -2/3. A perpendicular line will have a negative reciprocal slope. All tht means is take the original slope, flip it, and change the sign. So we take -2/3flip it making it -3/2change the sign making it 3/2. So ur perpendicular line will have a slope of 3/2.

y = mx + b
slope(m) = 3/2
(-5,6)x = -5 and y = 6
now sub and find b, the y int
6 = 3/2(-5) + b
6 = -15/2 + b
6 + 15/2 = b
12/2 + 15/2 = b
27/2 = b
so ur perpendicular equation is : y = 3/2x + 27/2 <==

What the options to that
