You can put this solution on YOUR website! Find the slope-intercept form of the equation that passes through the given point and is perpendicular to the given line.

-------------
The slope of lines perpendicular is the negative inverse.
--> m = -3/2
===================
Use y-y1 = m*(x-x1) where (x1,y1) is the slope.
