Answer:

y=-0.6x+1.8

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the line is perpendicular to that line, it has the same slope. So, the slope is -3/5. Also, it passes through the point 3, 0. So, y=-3/5x + b. To find the y intercept, lets solve the equation with the value of x being the x intercept. 0=-3/5(3)+b. 0=-9/5+b. Add 9/5 to both sides. b=1 4/5 So, the answer is y=-0.6x+1.8
