Answer:

y = 4/3x - 6

Explanation:

The slope of the 1st line is -3/4

So for the perpendicular line it has to be the exact opposite.

That looks like this ---> 4/3x

And the y-intercept is -6 because if you make a straight line where the x intercept is it matches.

The equation would look like this

y = 4/3x - 6

Hope this helps! Have a blessed day!
