Question

Write the equation of the line that passes through point (-2, 1) and is perpendicular to the line 3x - 2y =5

Answer 1

hmm what is the slope of => 3x - 2y =5?

Answer 2

-3/2

Answer 3

write in the form y = mx + b
slope = m
3/2

Answer 4

find slope of perpendicular

Answer 5

product of slope = -1
what is the slope of the perpendicular line?

Answer 6

using this slope and the point given (-2,1)
write the eqn

Answer 7

are you ok now?
