where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept (the value of y when the line crosses the y-axis)Perpendicular lines always have slopes that are negative reciprocals (ex. 2 and -1/2, 4/3 and -3/4, etc.)
is the slope of the line since it's in the place of m. Because perpendicular lines always have slopes that are negative reciprocals, the line we're currently solving for would have a slope of 
. Plug this into 
from both sides to isolate b
. Plug this back into
