Write the equation of a line that is perpendicular to the given line and that passes through the given point. y=2/3x+9 m (–6, 5)
y = -3/2x - 4
y = mx + c
*m = gradien
•>looking for gradients
y=2/3x+9
m1 = 2/3
m2 = -3/2
•>line equation (-6,5)
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
y - 5 = -3/2(x - (-6))
y - 5 = -3/2(x + 6)
y - 5 = -3/2 - 9
y = -3/2x - 9 + 5
y = -3/2x - 4
