Find the slope-intercept form of the equation that passes through the given point and is perpendicular to the given line.
\n" ); document.write( "(4,7) and y=2/3x-1
\n" ); document.write( "-------------
\n" ); document.write( "The slope of lines perpendicular is the negative inverse.
\n" ); document.write( "--> m = -3/2
\n" ); document.write( "===================
\n" ); document.write( "Use y-y1 = m*(x-x1) where (x1,y1) is the slope.
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
