Answer 2

I think we are missing some information.

Answer 3

We are, there was a graph right before this question. Give me a moment...

Answer 4

Here we go.

Answer 5

That is a vertical line, so the perpendicular will be a horizontal line. Through the point (-2,3). Using your knowledge from your last question, what do you think?

Answer 6

(-3, 2)?

Answer 7

Sorry, (3, 2).

Answer 8

We are looking for an equation that is a horizontal line. That means that it will look similar to this,

y=b

Answer 9

So, 2=b?

Answer 10

No,
We are given the point, (-2,3), (x,y)
That means that the line will be

y=3

Make sense?
