You can put this solution on YOUR website!
given line: \"y=-%285%2F3%29x%2B3\"...compared to \"slope-intercept\" form \"y=mx%2Bb\", you see that slope \"m=-%285%2F3%29\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "the slope of a line perpendicular to given line will have a slope \"m%5Bp%5D=-1%2Fm\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "so, a slope is \"m%5Bp%5D=%28%28-1%29%2F%28-5%2F3%29%29\" => \"m%5Bp%5D=%28-1%2A3%29%2F-5\" => \"m%5Bp%5D=3%2F5\"
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
