Let me break up what you need to do on this question.

1) First find the slope of the line in graph.
2) Find the opposite reciprocal of that slope. This new number is the new slope for the perpendicular line. This is because the slopes of two perpendicular lines when multiplied is -1. And an easy way for finding the slope of a perpendicular line is to change the sign and do the reciprocal.
3) Now you can use either point-slope form or slope-intercept form and you plug in the slope you found in step 2 and then plug in the point (-6, -3). This is in the form of (x, y) If you use slope-intercept form, you'll have to solve for b the y-intercepy. You can plug it in to point-slope form and then solve for y and you'll then get the equation in slope-intercept form

and it seems like you don't want my help so umm bye?
