Just wanted to check my answer** Write an equation of a line in slope intercept form that is perpendicular to the line 2x -3y = 12 and passes through the point (2, 6). I got y=-3/2x+9

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay, know the quick way to find sloe of a line?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-a/b

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-2/-3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so slope of that first line is 2/3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I knew it was the negative reciprocal, bc the perp. lines

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Perfect, then yeah you're right. You understand that, you understand the rest!
