\"+x%2B3y=4+\"
\n" ); document.write( "get this in slope-intercept form
\n" ); document.write( "\"+3y+=-1x+%2B+4+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+y+=+-1x%2F3+%2B+4%2F3+\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "If the new line is perpendicular to this one ... its slope is the opposite reciprocal of -1/3 .... +3
\n" ); document.write( "\"+y+=+3x+%2B+b+\"
\n" ); document.write( "plug in (-1,2)
\n" ); document.write( "\"+2+=+3%28-1%29+%2B+b+\"
\n" ); document.write( "solve for b
\n" ); document.write( "\"+2+=+-3+%2B+b+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+5+=+b+\"\r
