Question 98592: what is the slope of a line perpendicular to the equations below?
A. y= -2/3x + 4
B. y= 3x
C. 3x - 2y = 6
any help and explanation would be appreciated.

Y=-2/3X+4 HAS A SLOPE OF -2/3. THE PERPENDICULAR LINE HAS A SLOPE OF 3/2.
Y=3X HAS A SLOPE OF 3. THE PERPENDICULAR LINE HAS A SLOPE OF -1/3.
3X-2Y=6 OR -2Y=-3X+6 OR Y=-3X/-2+6/-2 OR Y=3X/2-3 HAS A SLOPE OF 3/2. THE PERPENDICULAR LINE HAS A SLOPE OF -2/3.
