Answer:

y = -3/2x + 1

Explanation:

Perpendicular slopes are negative reciprocals of each other.

After you convert that equation to slope-intercept form, you can get the negative reciprocal of the slope and put it in the equation. Then, insert the points(-2,-2) in it and solve it to find c. In this case, it's 1.
