\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " L has y-intercept (0, 2) and is perpendicular to the line with equation
\n" ); document.write( "2x - 3y =6.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " Let the eq'n to the line L be y = Mx+c ........(1)
\n" ); document.write( " its y- intercept is (0,2)
\n" ); document.write( " it is perpendicular to 2x-3y = 6
\n" ); document.write( " to find the slope reduce it to std form -3y = -2x+6
\n" ); document.write( " y = 2x/3-2
\n" ); document.write( " slope of the given eq'n = 2/3\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " hence slope for the line L is M = -1/m = -1/2/3 = -3/2\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " to find the constant c we should substitute for y,M &x\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " y = Mx+c
\n" ); document.write( " 2 = -3/2(0)+c or c = 2
\n" ); document.write( " Therefore the required eq'n is y = -3x/2+2
\n" ); document.write( " multiply by 2 throughout we get 2y = -3x+4\r
\n" ); document.write( "
