Write the equation of a line that is perpendicular to the given line and that passes through the given point.

y-3 = 8/3 (x+2); (-2,3)

1 answer

slope of given line = 8/3
so slope of your new line = -3/8
through (-2,3)

y = 3 = (-3/8)(x+2)

since the original was written in that form, I assume the new one is to be in that same format.
