perpendicular y= 3/2 x

perpendicular

y = \frac{3}{2} x

y = - \frac{2}{3} x + b

Solution steps

Find the slope of

y = \frac{3}{2} x : m = \frac{3}{2}

Compute the slope of the perpendicular line:

m_{p} = - \frac{2}{3}

Line with slope m=

- \frac{2}{3} : y = - \frac{2}{3} x + b

y = - \frac{2}{3} x + b
