Simon wanted to find the equation of a line that passes through (–6, 5) and is perpendicular to the graph of 3x + 2y = –11. his work is shown below. 1. 3x + 2y = –11 written in slope-intercept form is y = x , so the slope is . 2. the slope of the perpendicular line is . 3. substitute the point and the new slope into point-slope form to get y – 5 = (x – (– 4. simplifying, the line is y – 5 = (x + 6). is simon’s work correct?
