Question 853224: Could you help me find an equation of the line passing through the point (4,3) and perpendicular to the line 2x+3y=3. Written in slope-intercept form.
I don't know how to put 2x+3y=3 into y=mx+b form.

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Starting with 2x+3y=3, SOLVE FOR y and adjust to slope-intercept form.

The properties which may be used for each step without actually giving the steps are these:
* Additive Inverse of 2x;
* Multiplicative Inverse of 3.
