You can put this solution on YOUR website! Write the equation of the line L satisfying the given geometric conditions.
L has y-intercept (0,2) and is perpendicular to the line with equation
2x - 3y = 6.
---------------
The given line can be written: y=(2/3)x-2
It has a slope of 2/3
So the line perpendicular to it has slope -3/2
It also has y-intercept given as "2".
So the equation you want is y=(-3/2)x+2
