\n" ); document.write( "The equation of the line which is perpendicular to 3y=2x-6, and passes through the point (4,7)
\n" ); document.write( "

3y = 2x - 6
\n" );
document.write( "2x - 3y = 6 ------ Converting to STANDARD FORM of a linear function
\n" );
document.write( "If in the above form, Ax - By = C, KEEP A the same, NEGATE B and then switch coefficients to get left side of equation. This gives us: 3x + 2y = C
\n" );
document.write( "Now, C is calculated based on the given point and the left side of the equation.
\n" );
document.write( "This results in: 
\n" );
document.write( "That's IT!! \n" );
