document.write( "y = (1/9)x+2  |slope of  ⊥ line would be -9 (negative reciprocal of 1/9 )
\n" );
document.write( "New Line

document.write( " y = -9x + b  |using ordered pair Pt(3,-3) mto solve for b
\n" );
document.write( "-3 = -27 + b

document.write( " 24 = b
\n" );
document.write( " y = -9x + 24
