Write the equation in slope-intecept form of the line whose y-intercept is -3 and the line is perpendicular to the line whose wquation is 3x-2y=9

OpenStudy (zzr0ck3r):

y=-2/3x-3

OpenStudy (zzr0ck3r):

will have the negative inverse of the slope of the original equation which is 3/2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I had y=3/2x-3

OpenStudy (zzr0ck3r):

perp is -inverse of slope right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (zzr0ck3r):

slope of original is 3/2 right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

correct

OpenStudy (zzr0ck3r):

so the -inverse of 3/2 is -2/3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay i see thanks lol

OpenStudy (zzr0ck3r):
