Answer:
Explanation :
We first write the equation given in the slope-intercept form:

subtracting 6x from both sides gives

Finally, dividing both sides by -3 gives


Now, we have to recall at this point that if a linear equation is written in the form

then a perpendicular line has the equation

where c is a constant that satisfies any given conditions.
Therefore, in our case, the equation of the perpendicular line is

We are told that this line passes through (6, 1); therefore, it must satisfy the conditions that at x = 6, y = 1:


Hence, the equation of a perpendicular line that passes through (6, 1) is
