Answer:

y = 4/3x -11

Explanation:

y = -3/4 x - 8

This is in slope intercept form

y = mx+b where the slope is -3/4

We want a slope that is perpendicular

Take the negative reciprocal

-1 ( -3/4) = 4/3

The slope of the line that is perpendicular is 4/3

Using the slope intercept form of a line is

y = mx+b

y = 4/3x+b

Substituting the point into this equation

-3 = 4/3(6) +b

-3 = 8+b

Subtract 8 from each side

-3-8 = b

-11 =b

y = 4/3x -11
