Answer:

y= -7/6x+6

y= -1/2x+8

x = -3

Explanation:

Find the slope of the lines of the triangle. Then you can find the perpendicular slope of that (the slope of the altitudes) by inversing it and switching the = or - sign. Then you have a point the altitude goes through (one of the vertices) and the slope. Then you can make the equation.
