I am trying to help my sister but I have to understand first!!! what is the equation to find the answer?

anonymous · Answer

Find the slope of the points (-3,8) and (-2,5) using the slope formula

anonymous · Answer

Of the line Using this points*

anonymous · Answer

Once you do that, you know that the line of the equation that you are finding has the opposite slope of the line's slope you found since they both are perpendicular to each other

anonymous · Answer

Once you find slide use the equation y=mx+b and substitute the slope as m and the point it passes through to rearrange for b

anonymous · Answer

Once you get b write the equation with b and the slope of the line

Good luck! :)
