Answer:
In point slope form, this is y = (-5/2)x + 2. In standard form, it's (5/2)x + y = 2.
Step-by-step explanation:
y-6=-5/2 (x+4) has already been written in point-slope form. The slope of the line is -5/2 and the point on the line is (-4,6).
In slope-intercept form: add 6 to both sides of the original equation, obtaining y = 6 - (5/2)(x + 4), or y = 2 - (5/2)x, or y = (-5/2)x + 2

Y = -2/3x + 5....the slope here is -2/3. A perpendicular line will have a negative reciprocal slope. To find the negative reciprocal, we flip the slope and change the sign. So our perpendicular line will have a slope of 3/2 (see how I flipped -2/3 making it -3/2....and then changed the sign, making it 3/2)
y = mx + b
slope(m) = 3/2
(8,1)....x = 8 and y = 1
now we sub and find b, the y int
1 = 3/2(8) + b
1 = 12 + b
1 - 12 = b
-11 = b
so ur perpendicular equation is : y = 3/2x - 11 <==
